Book Description
The original Lotus Seven was the product of pure engineering genius. Forty years on, it continues to encapsulate the Lotus founder's ideals for an affordable sports racer: it makes few compromises, yet is equally at home on the road as on the track and it can be built by a mechanical novice. This book chronicles the saga of the Lotus Seven including the Series 2 and 3 during the 1960s - when it won fame in The Prisoner TV series. Caterham continues to build the Super Seven and John Tipler shows how the various structural components of the car are manufactured, and interviews key figures in the Seven's evolution.

Book Description
Caterhams are a new take on the classic Lotus Sevens and are found on racetracks and twisty roads around the world. Caterham Sevens is the story of a former Lotus dealer, Graham Nearn, who saw the potential of a hand-built sportscar which its creator, Lotus founder Colin Chapman, was about to discard. Nearn bought manufacturing rights from Colin Chapman, and by developing ever more powerful versions for more than 30 years, turned Caterham into one of the world's most prolific and affordable sports-racing cars. Widely recognized as the standard work on the history of Caterham and its cars from the original Lotus Seven of 1957 and its Caterham derivative of 1973 to the latest Cosworth-powered Caterham CSR of 2005. This edition is updated with 64 pages of additional material. 2nd ed.

Book Description
Conceived by Colin Chapman, the Seven started life as a Lotus in 1957, and in 1973 the manufacturing rights transferred to Graham Nearn's Caterham, which has made a commercial success of the venture ever since. The 'Seven' is enduringly popular, offering a uniquely raw and exhilarating road-driving experience, and has spawned many lookalikes, replicas and kit cars. This new edition is updated with 24 extra pages to cover the seven years' worth of new variants of Caterham Seven released since publication of the second edition in May 2007.
