Caterham Seven Roadsport





















Caterham Seven Roadsport 2007

For those looking for a unique look in a car that will move along at a fast clip, the 2007 Caterham Seven Roadsport may be the right choice. This car has been in production for 50 years now, and the 2007 version takes an already excellent car and makes it just a bit better. Both stiffness and rigidity have been added to the car for a better ride, and both the handling and the performance have been improved upon. While the car is a bit on the small side, and it only seats two people in it, it is definitely a great car for people who enjoy cruising around without spending a fortune in gas costs.
If you take a look at the 2007 Caterham Seven Roadsport you will quickly notice that the car boasts a traditional style that looks as if it came right out of the 1950s. While the styling of the vehicle may be traditional, you can be sure that all the parts are modern and that the latest technology is used in this car. Interestingly enough, you have two choices when you purchase this car. You can choose to have it built for you, or you can get the self build kit and actually put the car together on your own. This is definitely a fun option for those who enjoy tinkering around with cars; however, you most certainly want to be sure that you are following the directions carefully when putting it together.
While Caterham has used a variety of different engines to power their cars over the years, the news about the 2007 Caterham Seven Roadsport is that it boasts a Ford Sigma engine, which is generally used in a Ford Fiesta. This engine provides the car with plenty of power for a nice drive on the road, or even for some fun racing as well. Adding this new engine to the vehicle definitely was a good choice by Caterham, since it still has plenty of power but makes it easier to drive than before.
Although this car can be quite a bit of fun, it is definitely on the small side. For people who have longer legs or who are very tall, they may find themselves a bit cramped up in this car. Another thing about the small size is that you probably will not have much room to carry any luggage or even to carry home a few groceries; however, if you are just out for a nice drive to enjoy the weather, the 2007 Caterham Seven Roadsport is a perfect car for the job.
Of course the small size of this car has many advantages as well. It is definitely great when it comes to good fuel mileage, which is important today when gas prices are so high. In fact, as a general rule you can expect to get around 40 mpg when driving the Caterham Seven Roadsport. In some cases this car has been known to get even better gas mileage than that, making it a very economical car to drive around for enjoyment.
The 2007 Caterham Seven Roadsport does come with quite a bit of power as well. While the engine isn't huge, it produces satisfactory power and will go from 0-60 in only 5.0 seconds, which is doing pretty good. You shouldn't expect a sports car interior; in fact, while the seats are leather and there is a nice heating system, that is pretty much all you will find in the way of luxury when it comes to this car. Although the car can be fun, definitely looks great, and has power, a luxury interior is not really on the list of this cars' characteristics.
If you want a car with an engine that sounds great and that provides you with a beautiful ride and you're not really wanting to dish out the money, the 2007 Caterham Seven Roadsport is definitely one to keep in mind. Costing only about $24,000 and a bit less if you build it yourself, you can get a unique car without having to spend the big bucks. Sure, it may not really be a race car, but if cruising around with the wind blowing through your hair is what you want, this car is a great inexpensive option.

My BMW X5

I have always loved and owned beautiful cars. Like most men and many women, I appreciate and enjoy all aspects of reading about, watching videos and TV shows, great driving movie scenes, owning and driving great automotive machinery. So I thought I would tell you about my current favorite car - my BMW X5. It is a 2003 3.0i straight six petrol model.
It has about 40,000kms on the clock, which is very low for this year model. It is pristine white in colour, with black leather interior. Extras include dark tinted windows, aluminum side-steps, parking sensors front and back, headrest DVD players with wireless headphones and remote control, Ming paint protection and leather protection. The car is in 'as new' condition and looks and drives as such.
After reading so many magazines, watching countless episodes of Top Gear and similar programs, and searching the net constantly for articles and wallpapers for my computer, I feel well-equipped to now do my own, unbiased of course, road test and review. Whilst not a recognised motoring journalist, I believe I can provide a layman's review that anyone can relate to. So based on my BMW X5, here are the pros and cons as I see them.
Economy: I average 12 L/100kms with an even mix of freeway and round town driving. I normally carry four passengers on average also, which to me is pretty good economy for a vehicle of this size and weight.
Interior: the fittings are all of very good quality, including the plastics, and being an all-black palette probably helps the feel of luxury and quality. The visibility is good all round, although I would definitely recommend the parking sensors both front and back to assist the average driver in avoiding any minor errors in judgment. The windows are large and give good visibility to both driver and passengers, and the higher seating position of an SUV also assists with this benefit. Leg, shoulder, and head room is very good front and back and traveling with four passengers regularly has never prompted any complaints of a lack of space. Seats are comfortable on long journeys for four adults, although a third passenger can sit comfortably in the middle of the rear seat if they are smaller in stature or preferably a child.
On the road: for a large vehicle, the 3.0i petrol engine provides ample power for acceleration for both city and country driving. Overtaking is effortless, although constant heavy use of the right foot will definitely consume a lot more petrol. Forget the motoring experts who test cars at their upper limits and criticize them for being a few tenths of a second slower than their rivals. The reality is for us average, normal drivers who obey the speed limits most of the time, the power and speed of this car is excellent. Ride is smooth over nearly all surfaces, with only the most pot-holed road sending some bumps into the seats.
The noise levels are also generally very good, even at 110 kms per hour. Coarse bitumen surfaces on country roads will produce some noise from the tires, but this is not to a level that will prevent conversation between front and rear passengers or listening to the radio or CD player. Handling is a major strength for this car with even tight twisting corners producing almost sedan-like handling with a minimum of body-roll. Braking is excellent with the big discs all round bringing this big, heavy car to a stop very quickly.
Summary: overall I am absolutely thrilled with this vehicle and it has absolutely made me an advocate for the BMW brand. I would definitely buy another one, and would highly recommend it to others. But I feel obligated to at least list what I acknowledge as the cons. So here they are: firstly, the economy could be better and looking at the specs on the current '09 models this seems to have been improved considerably with the new generation engines, even the V8. Next, a reversing camera as standard would be a nice-to-have rather than a must have, as the noise-warning sensors actually work very well.
Finally, some would consider the ride on the firmer side with some other competitors being softer in ride. However, the old trade-off needs to be considered - if you soften the ride you will decrease the handling and increase the body roll on an SUV. For me, the ride is more than acceptable and I would not trade any handling ability for a softer ride. So there it is. I hope this encourages more of you to buy and own a BMW X5.
