Caterham 7 620R
Completely re-built to what I think would be suitable for an "official set" standard.
Everything is now legit in terms of parts, connections,strength and above all an enjoyable building experience :)
The short cut 3mm rod on the front wheel arches will be replaced with black t-bars when I can get some.
I've had to dumb down the detail in this version, compared to my previous renditions and honestly I think "IF" this idea ever got through review, etc, it would have to be dumbed down even more, but I went with this one with everything I could do.
This is one legal option, I will do another with fixed steering as I think realistcically that is the route TLG would go with if this ever "made it".
Huge thanks to all who have voted so far, please keep them coming in and also spreading the word, lets see if we can make this happen :)

I should appologise for some of the photos, I'm still trying to get to grips with my new camera and ahem, obviously I'm still not yet with it ;)
Edit: "Get Surrey" just posted this article to help the project along :) www.getsurrey.co.uk/lifestyle/caterham-seven-replica-gets...
