I have had an offer on the Caterham. 90% sure they want it. They need to sell their Caterham. I have agreed to sell it but ----.
It is more than I paid for it and I have done over 8000 miles in it.
As the Zenos is unlikely to sell I might have to run it for a few years. Not my preferred choice but I need to let a few cars go as I have no where to keep them all.
Tough but in two minds?

Re: Difficult Decision!
In the circumstances, it seems best to sell the car you can sell at a profit. There are plenty out there (,not with that engine though) so you can always get back in a Caterham when you've shifted the Zenos.

Thanks Duncan
Problem is I have an emotional attachment to the Caterham and nothing for the Zenos
Even Ian Payne could not catch me in the Westfield at Snetterton yesterday. He drove passed me in the Caterham

Re: Difficult Decision!
So, just so I'm clear, you have currently full ownership or part ownership in
Caterham
Zenos
Morgan
Ultima
Westfield FW400
?
I'd sell the Zenos for whatever you could get for it and keep the Caterham.

Re: Difficult Decision!
mmm a toughie.....what's going to give you satisfaction driving on a weekend/track day/tour.....think there's only 1 answer to that question; thing is whether you can sensibly justify shifting the zenos/westie at whatever the market currently dictates. Are you sure there's no market for either in mainland EU - Holland/DE/France?

Re: Difficult Decision!
Money's money, profit is profit, take the oppportunity to move on the Caterham. Might be an opportunity to do some damage limitation on the zenos in the spring. If not cut your losses anyhow. Regardless, don't be sentimental they are inanimate objects.

Maybe



It has been for sale since I bought it, but 2 k might be a touch less than I would like for it

maybe a faster Caterham!
