THE FIRST HOUR

5 minutes

The throttle bodies sound good –much better than a normal Ford Sigma engine

15 minutes

Four-cylinder more flexible than the characterful but peaky turbo triple in the Seven Sprint

30 minutes

Headwinds halt the 565kg Caterham in its tracks

50 minutes

Forgot what a fa it is to put the hood up on a Seven

60 minutes

It’s love. But I’d love a cheaper Seven 310 even more
