Our Verdict
This is a strong buy for anyone seeking a low-mileage, nearly new Caterham with a clean record. The two MOT tests to date show no defects and very low annual mileage, suggesting careful use.
Given the clean MOT history, focus your negotiation on the absence of any advisory notes and the very low mileage, which may command a premium over higher-mileage Caterhams of the same year. Ask for the full service history, as lightweight sports cars like this are often used seasonally and may have sparse but important maintenance records. Confirm whether the car has been kept in dry storage and check for any private modifications, which are common on Caterham builds but not reflected in MOT data.
As a 1598cc petrol Caterham, this vehicle will likely return modest fuel economy by modern standards due to its performance orientation, though exact figures are not in the provided data. Road tax for a 2022 petrol car of this size is typically in a standard band, and insurance will depend on the individual kit-car valuation and driver profile rather than a conventional group. Annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and basic maintenance for a low-mileage example are estimated at £800-£1,000, assuming limited seasonal use.
The MOT history shows no failures or advisories, so there are no test-flagged issues to investigate from official records. However, as a 2022 red Caterham with only 5,629 miles, you should physically inspect for weather-related wear on exposed components, chassis condition, and tyre age given the low usage. Check the 1598cc engine for any fluid leaks or corrosion from infrequent use, and verify the brakes are free from seizing after low-mileage storage.
The FX22EAM is a 2022 Caterham finished in red with a 1598cc petrol engine, first registered in April 2022. Its MOT history shows two passes with no defects recorded, at 3,872 miles in March 2025 and 5,629 miles in March 2026. With under 6,000 miles in four years, it is well below typical use for its age and presents as a well-kept example.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Caterham Unknown model, so no statistical reliability claim can be made.
