2000 Caterham Seven 1.6L Petrol · W438 SNR

This 2000 Caterham Seven recently passed its MOT on 21 May 2026 with no recorded defects at just over 10,500 miles. This is the cleanest possible recent result and shows the vehicle met the minimum roadworthiness standards at its latest test. The only failure in the history occurred in May 2024 for a faulty side repeater light and excessive exhaust carbon monoxide. Both of these are relatively minor issues. The side repeater is a simple electrical fix, and the emissions failure suggests a carburettor or exhaust tuning issue rather than major engine wear. Crucially, the car was re-tested and passed later the same day, and it has now passed two further tests cleanly. This indicates the specific problems were successfully rectified. The overall trend is stable and positive. After the single failure in 2024, the vehicle has achieved three consecutive clean passes, with the most recent being the most comprehensive. There is no evidence of a worsening pattern in the MOT data.
