Our Verdict
This 2022 Caterham presents a strong value proposition with a clean MOT history and low mileage, though its unknown model variant limits detailed reliability insights.
Focus on verifying the service history to confirm the low mileage is genuine. Check for any unreported bodywork damage given the yellow paint's susceptibility to showing scratches. Negotiate based on the vehicle's low usage, but be cautious about potential hidden costs from the unknown model's lack of reliability data. Ensure the engine and suspension are thoroughly tested, as Caterhams are performance-oriented vehicles.
Petrol fuel economy for a 2.0L engine is likely average to slightly below average, with tax likely in Band 11-12 (£155-£175 annually for 2026). Insurance groups for Caterhams often fall in higher brackets (15-20) due to performance specs. Maintenance costs may be moderate, but parts availability could be limited. Estimated annual running cost: £1,000-£1,500.
Inspect the engine bay for oil leaks or unusual wear, as 1998cc petrol engines can develop issues over time. Check the yellow paint for deep scratches or bodywork repairs. Verify the VIN matches the registration to confirm the 2022 first registration date. Test the lightweight chassis for rigidity, as Caterhams are known for their racing heritage.
The vehicle has maintained a clean MOT record over two years with minimal mileage (5,748 miles as of 2026). Its 1998cc petrol engine and yellow colour add to its appeal, but the lack of model-specific reliability data means buyers should prioritise physical inspections.
No aggregate reliability data available for this unknown Caterham model variant.
