Over almost 50 years of Seven production, the dimensions of this unique car have stayed true to the original Chapman design. Worldwide race championships and new road models have steered the continual dynamic development of the car, but external dimensions have remained the same- until the introduction of the Seven SV in 2003. The Caterham Seven SV allows a greater range of drivers to enjoy Caterham Motoring. This model has been developed on an increased dimension cockpit - an extra 80mm in length and 110mm in width - allowing even the tallest drivers to fit comfortably in a Seven.
