CATERHAM 420R *ROAD TEST*

[@yellowledbutter]

"and just like that, it gets to 60 in 3.8 seconds..." * proceeds to floor it for 16 seconds 😂

[@kaaadxx]

get this man on top gear already

[@SidNorth]

TG have got the presenters they want. Let me stay on YT for 10 years and move elsewhere 💪🏽

[@kaaadxx]

@@SidNorth You need to make a new and better Topgear on the big screen my guy!

[@adam20181]

I agree TG presenter!

[@allothernamesbutthis]

lol they would put him on with the top traffic cop for a grilling!

[@Big1_]

No way, he looks like a MENA.

[@awalk5177]

Yes, the Lotus 7 was conceived before you were , when people who reported on cars had once upon a time got their hands oily. I remember first seeing the Lotus 7 on the road in 1968 but they had been around for some years already.

[@TedwardDrives]

yes yes yes! I just drove my first Caterham last week and I'm still smiling

[@oliversouthgate2486]

Give this crazy bastard a 620R

[@SidNorth]

😂

[@thecarbandits7834]

Love your 'raw' honest reviews. Keep up those sideways tricks. You deserve more exposure.

[@SidNorth]

Thank you sir, I’ll do my best

[@Tetrapetaloudos1]

I would like your opinion on the 620S vs the 420r to have fun as a road car. I’v had the 620R at donnignton for a day. It was mental and spinned its rear wheels in 4th gear in the dry. However the sequential box is probably too much for the road. Would love to see you in a 620s on the road to see if you can actually have more fun with it vs a 420

[@adamkelsall3942]

The 620R is mental. Genuinely mental. On track it was untouchable. On the road it would be obscenely rapid and I imagine the Sadev gearbox would be a pain in the arse. Incredible cars.

[@doublecupsippin]

yes get this man a 620R!!! Also give him more exposure please!!!! I"ve been watching for a long time now over in the UnitedStates and this kid needs a career in driving or motor journaling I hope to watch you go far Sid!

[@clivesimpson-wells5952]

As for the hoods , I drove mine back from Ipswich to Eastbourne in rain 3/4 of the way , stopped for fuel ,put up the Half hood , popers on the windscreen , 4 straps ,1 min , all was fine enough, its bloody amazing Car , 260CSR. Oh I'm over 60 , no problem getting in or out , so what's UP with Him ? Who knows. Should have bought one Years ago......

[@johnnyboy1586]

The great thing with super lightness is you can have more side wall on the tyres giving a more supple ride

[@keithmarsh1046]

Enjoyed that, thanks. I've got the smaller Caterham but I fear I NEED MORE HORSEPOWER!

[@machohogan]

That colour. Deciding between the 420 and 620. Keep going from one to the other.

[@mwf5]

Great review Sid. Articulate and honest backed up with great driving skills. Roll on 620R 😀

[@DM-fj8wv]

620R please. Great video Sid.

[@andrewb2476]

Only downside to Caterham’s design is the indicator stalk ( or lack of one) would be nice if they or some manufacture would design and build steering hubs with neat switchgear so you can have traditional indicator / hi & low light beam and wiper stalks,

[@rtorbs]

Bro you really learnt to drive after Rizzle Kicks :D

[@woioioioioioiii6664]

Man like Sid man, brudda is mad behind the wheel. Nutty driver.

[@sharndupreez1]

Can't open the bonnet.. Takes door off with one hand 😂🤯

[@SidNorth]

Come to think of it.... 😂😂

[@RooRichy]

yes yes yes xD

[@JamalPennant]

Congrats on the ITV appearance with the KZbin channel love of cars👏🏾

[@gjbspark]

that looks like a SV to me, so it is 565 kg making the power to weight 358bhp/t....not 420bhp/t...caterhams are named after the engines bhp x 2......170 = 84bhp, 360 =180bhp, 420 = 210bhp, 620 = 310bhp...more research reqd i think. caterhams are great though...i had a r300 tuned to 232bhp so it was 421bhp/t

[@leemcenroe8785]

Class Sid as always that’s a little beast m8 wouldn’t mind a wee spin in that keep up the good videos m8 👍

[@SidNorth]

Thanks bossman 👌🏽

[@leemcenroe8785]

Cheers sid m8 no probs buddy 👍

[@SidNorth]

👊🏽

[@michaelporter8485]

Look like a young chris Harris from Top gear and a sick driver 👌🏼😂

[@WhiteRoseDrives]

7:14 *this* Great to hear somebody point that out when discussing a Caterham @SidewaySidVideos, nice! 👏

[@Thejarry180project]

You need to bring the Clio 182 back!!! also unreal videos as ever my man :)

[@liquidsouldier4429]

Get this man in the 620R!!!

[@i.k.7689]

I can't wait for the 620R video ;-)

[@stevehall99]

620R..... it has to happen. Then you bring it here for my cameras mate ;)

[@pauliboo2]

Congratulations on the new ITV4 show ‘on the road’, you came across really well, reminded me of a younger Jonny Smith (CarPervert) when he joined 5th Gear. Well done, and I hope we see more of you!

[@Wilkkid1]

Sid needs more subs by far the best on you tube

[@SidNorth]

I need to upload more 😅

[@paulgardner9763]

Excellent review Sid, I'm testing one when the showrooms reopen and then join the 420R waiting list. Certainly look forward to you trying other Se7ens :)

[@12ste29]

Man like Sid 👍

[@SidNorth]

Yes bro 👊🏽

[@allosaurusfragilis7782]

This lad knows how to drive a seven!

[@TKA69]

Always waiting for him to post

[@SidNorth]

Sorry to keep you waiting, more to come 👊🏽

[@theimmortals3772]

Fantastic video Sid North

[@markwright1742]

Great review sid, please do more content we need a weekly video from you.

[@fatbloke2285]

Nice vid Sid

[@SidNorth]

Thanks 🙏

[@markwatkinson3]

Great review, you need to sort your harness out mate, lap belt is not tight enough.

[@steverabbits]

I wonder about Caterham's figures, 560kg, 210bhp is not 420bhp/tonne its 375/tonne. Why don't they just tell the truth and call it the 375R?

[@jamesrichards5601]

Superb vid Sid!

[@SidNorth]

Thanks boss

[@reactdave1800]

Great vid, Sid! How tall are you? I’m looking to get one of these (or maybe the 620), but I’m 6 foot 5 and afraid it might be a little awkward of a sit

[@eddiel7635]

You can lower the floor in the spec 👍🏼

[@jmacca4493]

Great video mate. Own a 310 myself Could do with more shots of you driving it though. Serious skills.

[@weedaviec]

Great video. Always loved these cars since my teens.

[@clivesimpson-wells5952]

Its Great to live with , and the Roof Waterproofing WORKS ... Weekend away Yessss... Dumped my 911 turbo , Should have Bought one of These Year's Ago ..... eats my old 911....

[@edwardsmith6345]

would love to see your test of a 620S

[@rwags6848]

Certainly a fantastic little car! Want it to rev higher? Put a Honda S2000 engine in it (as per mine… a Fraser from NZ🇳🇿)! Must go… we need a loaf of bread or something!

[@jamiljafri4841]

Cracking video Sid! Would love to see you do a tutorial on car control

[@fatbloke2285]

There are no tutorials on how to be a nutter! You either are one or your not. ha ha!!

[@Freshiemaster]

Excellent video, and congrats on Lovecars itv4!

[@kloppsliverpudlians88]

Is this an S3 or SV chassis? And what’s your height?

[@MrRoyck10]

What Sideways scores Sid? If Doug can do the Doug score Sid can do the sideway score! What a tremendous driver, if Lewis was a KZbinr he would be Sid, if Sid was an F1 driver he will be Lewis Hamilton.

[@thecaterhamcave]

Great review

[@IamDude2]

Fireblade engine? Don’t remember that as an engine option

[@Lyshem]

You and llf should find a 3rd guy and make 1 hour long shows travelling and exploring new cars and areas

[@all_out_of_bubble_gum]

Please do some Tests of MK Sportcars and GBS Seven. Those small manufacturers with fair price conditions does not get any attention from serious Car testers!! That is not fair, and a pitty

[@thehomelessproject3784]

You sir are in a class of your own hats off to you !!

[@garry_potta]

Give Sid the 620R so he can do is a trackday video please caterham

[@thecaterhamcave]

Great video !!

[@marksunners9007]

@Caterham get Sid into a 620R as soon as possible!!!

[@cameronmilne3590]

Every petrol head needs a caterham in their garage. Its like the concentrate juice for driving

[@pablouvedoble]

*Recorded with a potato*

[@stes2746]

Definitely want to see u punish the big daddy version 👌

[@SidNorth]

😎🔥

[@RobManser77]

Almost in the same sentence in your video: 420bhp/tonne 210bhp 560kg Do the maths. 😂😂

[@G4RY1159]

Raw!

[@SidNorth]

👊🏽🔥

[@ittotaq]

think you really need to do a different mic.. holy shit that thumping from the wind. How about a lav?

[@RRRVanquish1998]

I hope you drive the DBS Superleggera

[@SidNorth]

I’m working on it ;)

[@trisbonky]

I've just seen that you are going to be on the lovecars tv show on itv4. Nice one. Looking forward to that. Sideways Sid and the original drift master Tiff. Always gonna be great

[@nathanwilliams3057]

Give that man a 620r to rag pleaseeeee

[@markgwyther6137]

620R please 😍

[@323Ondrej]

More track oriented tire is Avon ZZR - pretty much a cut slick (they have 3 compound types). Shit in the rain, but awesome on the track when dry ;)

[@frantz4318]

why driving like that on open roads?

[@jamielearmonth1039]

Where's the Clio?

[@SidNorth]

Still with me
