British sports car manufacturer Caterham has released a unique commemorative version of its Seven roadster dubbed the CDX to celebrate 15 years of running its specialized driving day program. Only 20 examples of the high-spec model will be built, each powered by a highly tuned 1.6L Ford sigma engine with 135hp. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox.

The cars also get a limited-slip differential and custom rollover bar. To set them apart, each of the cars will receive unique badging, a Momo leather steering wheel, and 13in superlight alloy wheels plus a glossy black finish.

The final price of the is £17,495 (approximately $35,000), which also entitles owners to take part in the specialized driving day program. Run in the UK and Europe, the event places licensed drivers behind the wheel of a Seven roadster and takes through several different driving situations include slalom, drift and racing.

That's a little expensive, don't you think?

"a highly tuned 1.6L Ford sigma engine with 135hp"
what is "highly tuned" for Ford appears "near regular" for Hyundai (1.6L; 126hp). But perhaps torque is different..

Tuning an engine for sportiness is not just about horsepower.
