Video: Caterham 620R driven

23 February 2014
Review

The Caterham 620R packs wide-track front suspension, a supercharged 2.0-litre Ford Duratec motor producing 311bhp and 219lb ft driving the back wheels through a straight-cut, sequential six-speed gearbox and limited-slip differential.

It is a few ancillaries away from being a race car, and not much this side of a hypercar such as the Bugatti Veyron could keep pace with it. It is extreme in a way only drivers of a BAC Mono or Ariel Atom could understand.

Steve Sutcliffe puts Caterham's fastest ever road car to the test to find out if it is also its most intoxicating.

Sutter the Nutter!

Best video reviews out there. You can string a sentence together, you can string several corners together (usually completely bonkers sideways). Love it!

Useless....!

The car that is,it's a Toy,only the brave and expert should drive it ,and on a track only,it's way to expensive for what it is,and you would wear a Helmet to drive it so you didn't get fly's in your mouth or broken Teeth or a Black eye from debris being kicked up in front of you.

A normal bloke is better off with the new 3-cylinder Cateram

...as something as fast as this, is really to much to handle - lest the driver has spent some quality time on track learning how to drive it, honing his reactions.
