Racing with Mr Bond
Took my Caterham to Furka Pass for the first time this morning and it was an absolute blast! Furka is also known as James Bond Strasse because the Goldfinger famous mountain chase was filmed there. The 7 is a rocket, I’m still in the engine break in perio...
Thanks!

That looked
Like awesome fun on the track. Love the the opposite lock action shot. Your 7 also looked great in the classic livery 👍
