I think the main problem is there are now plenty of MX5’s and MGF’s around for people who want an open topped sports car. There wasn’t anything similar when the 2+2 first came out.
Nowadays 99% of people are happy with a production car rather than something with 1980’s parts underneath it. Whereas the 7 market are all kit cars, there’s not really a production option, if you can’t afford a real Caterham you buy a clone. I’m sure Eddie could repair the door for a lot less than a new one from Quantum.

Mine cost me 8 grand to build originally (one of the ones on ebay now). However they have since seemed to 'fall out of favour' alongside the rise of the seven rep. So people seem to be just trying to get the best price they can for them. Personally - although I am sure that the 4 grand car is gorgeous, it is made from exactly the same kit as the 1 - 2 grand cars..... so you pays you money and you take your choice I reckon. I am currently in a bit of a dilemma as I have been thinking about buying my old one back - however there is a little damage to the passenger door so i priced one up at quantum. My god a door is expensive!!! So expensive I reckon I would be better off buying a different car to be honest...
