The Caterham Seven 485 was built from 2006 to 2019.
The CSR, the most traded version: The CSR represented Caterham's most sophisticated Seven during its 13-year run, bridging the gap between raw track weapon and refined road car. Built around a 2.3-liter Ford Duratec four-cylinder producing 237 hp, the CSR delivered blistering 3.4-second 0-60 times while maintaining the Seven's legendary power-to-weight ratio. What set the CSR apart was its wider track, pushrod suspension, and optional sequential gearbox—refinements that made it more civilized without dulling the Seven's razor-sharp edge. The carbon fiber bodywork and aero package gave it a more modern aesthetic than its siblings. For collectors, the CSR represents peak evolution of the classic Seven formula before Caterham moved to newer platforms. Clean examples with the sequential box are particularly sought after.
