Our Verdict

This is a low-risk purchase for a buyer seeking a nearly new, lightly used Caterham. The clean MOT history and very low mileage make it an appealing option, though independent model reliability data is unavailable for this specific variant.

Given the very low mileage, confirm with the seller how the car was stored and whether it was used seasonally, as Caterhams are often kept as weekend or track vehicles. A full service history is essential — with only two MOTs and low usage, check that routine maintenance such as oil changes and brake fluid renewal were carried out regardless of mileage. Since no aggregate reliability data exists for this Caterham model, budget for an independent inspection by a specialist who knows the brand's kits and running gear.

As a 1998cc petrol Caterham first registered in 2022, this vehicle will fall into a standard petrol VED band, though exact tax cost should be confirmed via DVLA lookup using the registration. Insurance group and premiums will depend on the specific body and performance configuration, but Caterhams are typically classed as specialist or sports cars with higher-than-average premiums. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and basic maintenance are likely in the region of £1,200-£1,800 given low annual mileage and specialist part pricing.

Both MOT tests recorded no defects, so there are no failure types in the history to investigate, but the low mileage means consumables may have aged rather than worn. Check tyres for sidewall cracking from standing, and inspect brake discs for surface corrosion common on lightly used performance cars. Verify the chassis and suspension for any corrosion or damage from storage, and confirm the 1998cc engine starts cleanly and reaches operating temperature without hesitation.

LK22DJX is a blue 2022 Caterham with a 1998cc petrol engine, first registered in April 2022. Its two MOT tests to date (May 2025 at 1,729 miles and June 2026 at 1,958 miles) both passed with no defects recorded. With under 2,000 miles on the clock after four years, this vehicle has seen minimal use, which generally suggests low mechanical wear.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Caterham UNKNOWN model, so no statistical reliability reputation can be stated from the provided data.
