Our Verdict
This 2006 Caterham Seven (GN06EUT) is a strong buy for an enthusiast, with five consecutive clean MOT passes and very low annual mileage. Budget for specialist maintenance and limited everyday practicality rather than any obvious mechanical red flags from the records.
Given the spotless MOT record, focus your negotiation on provenance and condition rather than outstanding faults. A Caterham Seven is a kit-derived sports car, so a detailed service history with receipts for engine, suspension and brake work is essential — ask the seller for evidence of regular lubrication, chassis checks and any track-day use. Confirm the V5C matches registration GN06EUT, the green paint and 1.4cc petrol engine, and clarify whether the car is on original or modified components as this affects value and insurance.
As a 1.4-litre petrol roadster first registered in 2006, the Caterham Seven will fall into a relatively low VED band for its era, though exact tax depends on specific emissions data not provided. Insurance groups for Caterhams are typically specialist and can be moderate to high despite the small engine due to performance and limited production. Estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance and basic maintenance is around £700-£1,000, with fuel economy reasonable for a light sports car but servicing best done via a Caterham-aware mechanic.
The MOT history shows no failures or advisories across the last five tests, so there are no recorded defect types to chase up on this vehicle. Nonetheless, inspect the exposed chassis and suspension for corrosion or stone damage, check brake lines and wishbones given the car's age and open-wheel design, and verify hood and interior condition on this green 2006 example. A pre-purchase inspection by a Caterham specialist is wise, as MOTs on such cars may not capture wear on track-oriented parts.
The green 1.4-litre petrol Caterham Seven first registered in March 2006 shows a consistent MOT history with passes in 2022 (24,522 miles), 2023 (25,528), 2024 (27,190), 2025 (28,686) and 2026 (30,013 miles), all with no defects recorded. Average annual use has been around 1,100 miles, leaving the car with just over 30,000 miles on the clock after 20 years. No aggregate model reliability data is available, but the individual history for this example is reassuringly clean.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Caterham Seven, so assessment relies solely on this individual vehicle's clean test history.
