Getting behind the wheel of a Lotus or Caterham Seven can become one of the most exhilarating experiences you'll have. And, every year, about 900 lucky drivers take delivery of a new Seven; many more buy a used one. Described as a four-wheel motorcycle, the Seven's are detailed in this history and specification guide. Full-model listings, detailed specifications, and driving impressions come together to offer you a great tool for your next new or used Lotus or Seven purchase.
