    Right. For the record.
    I am NOT condoning drink driving, when I referred to taking a drive to a Pub on a Sunday, I was referring to have a nice roast.
    I would never condone such a stupid thing as it's reckless, irresponsible and selfish, but it appears my statement has been taken out of context 😠.
    Believe it or not, it is possible to go to a pub and not drink. In fact it's easy but maybe not so for others 🤷‍♂️

    Great video Aaron, honestly would love to own a Caterham in the future as like a weekender. I don’t think I’d even care about the power, all of them just look so much fun haha!

    Good Afternoon everybody! Welcome to my review of the 'new' Caterham Super Seven 2000. What do you think of it, would you pay the extra money compared to the Seven 360? Let me know in the comments section.

    To get a chance to drive a car that is based on the super 7 series 2, which was also my grandparents' race car... yes, I will throw my wallet at it.

    Thanks for the heads up a week or so ago that this video was going live! Enjoyed it a lot! The only frustration was the comparison with the 600.. The 1600 would have been more relevant. I have the wide body dropped floor version of the Super Seven 1600 (2021) and looking to potentially move up to the 2000. However... the noise the 1600 makes is simply on another level, with just enough performance to keep you engaged. I'm still interested in the 2000 though.. as my dealer recently ruined the set up of my Jenvey Throttle bodies.. needs to go back again. No such problems in the 2000... Keep em coming!

      Hiya pal, thanks for watching. To be honest, it would have been difficult to make strong comparisons with the 1600 as I drove it so long ago and driven lots of cars in between, whereas my memory of the 600 is still fresh as I had driven the cars back-to-back.

      @@CarObsession No issues at all mate! It was purely my own personal situation, and you have a wider audience to consider. 100% get why you did it.. it's not like i'm sat here all disappointed 😊. To the contrary, it was pleasure to watch!

    I've been waiting eagerly for this video! Would you prefer the current 2000 model or the 1600 from 2 years ago? From the video, I think the 2000's Ford Duratec just sounds too "modern", while the 1600 sounded a lot better. I test drove a Caterham 340 here in Switzerland (360 in the UK). The Duratec engine sounded rather generic/loud-ish and with the exhaust bypass / cut-out valve it just sounded louder in higher revs, but not better. What's your take on the engine sound on these models?

      Hiya, thanks for watching! It's interesting you mention the engine note as another reviewer (someone like Autocar or something) saying that the engine tone was dull. Come to think of it, I think I probably would prefer the 1600 as the ITBs were to die for!

      Well, technically speaking it would refer to last year or recent past, but can be used loosely just to mean the past. Thanks for watching.

    Sunday cruise down to the pub?! We’re encouraging drinking & driving now ?! 🤬

    • @CarObsession
      @CarObsession  Рік тому +5

      No, I'm not. I'm referring to having a nice Sunday roast, but if you want to interpret it like that, that's up to you. You know, it is possible to go to a pub and not drink 🤷‍♂️. For the record, I have never drink driven so your accusation is frustrating to say the least.

      Also, for what it's worth, Caterham themselves used a pub for press photos for the Caterham Seven Sprint, so does that mean they are encouraging drink driving as well? 🤷‍♂ The pub is The Abinger Hatch, which I've actually been to - very quaint place, low ceilings in places if memory serves me right 😅

      @jayrusty2012 this comment is ridiculous 🤣, like Aaron said you can go to a pub and not drink. Pubs have car parks, because some people actually drive there. Just seems like you’ve said that only looking for a reaction 🤷‍♂️
