Caterham Super 7 Sprint vs Citroen Saxo VTS - With Richard Hammond
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 кві 2017
- Richard Hammond reviews and compares two cars that were built with the driver in mind - the Caterham Super 7 Sprint and the Citroen Saxo VTS, to find out if it's worth sacrificing the practicality of the Citroen for the excitement of the Caterham. The Super 7 Sprint has a rather small 1.6L, 8 valve, K-Series engine, but this is more than adequate for a car of it's size and weight.

Hate to point this out but if i'm not mistaken that's a 1.8 vauxhall engine in the caterham not a k series.
Saxos, Clio’s and golfs ar the best for cheap track day fun in my opinion
They are also both red
Residuals for caterhams are high for two reasons, which are linked. Firstly the supply is small because demand is limited. Secondly, over 10 years that little Saxo will cover100K plus. The caterham will cover about 15 - 20K max and it will be pampered. Caterhams are just toys, like an expensive bike but not as fast. Little hot hatches get the c*** beaten out of them. They are magic.
13 grand for pocket rocket performance. You can't even buy a new vauxhall Adam for that! How time's have changed.
Sucks doesn't it?
Saxo❤️
Only just realised this was filmed in tunbridge Wells near where I live
Bought my vts brand new in 1999 for £12000.....
You can now buy it back and get some necessary work done for the same price.
Im sure Hammonds only got small feet but even so those clogs he is wearing are not ideal for driving any car let alone these 2 with their tiny footwells and pedals.
That's not a k series, it's the basic vauxhall 1.6
Whats the Saxo worth today ? £1k ? The Caterham would be worth 10x that ! Who would have thought that the Caterham was the sensible choice ;-)
😉
And the Citroen saxo became chavs car of choice and more or less worthless
Yep. Hardly any left on the road now. Can't get a reasonable vts for less than 4k 😳
That's changing now!
