Not criticising but
New logo looks great, but there was something bugging me about it.
Its a 2D side view, with perspective.
Two seats, one infront of the other, two headlamps, two roll bar stays.
So 10 seconds with good old MS Paint...
 
logo slight edit
And I'll repeat, its NOT a criticism on the original, just pointing out something that didn't look right to me.

I agree- I think the single side on view looks better than the shadow lights + seat effect.

actually, i like the current one just fine. if you stood side on to a 7, that is what you would see. similar to standing at the top of a tree lined
avenue and looking down. you dont just see one tree on either side, you see all the trees that run the length of said avenue. i believe its called
perspective? if you wanted a view of a 7 sliced in half your modified one would be right.
i say keep it as it is, nice work whoever designed it

Wow, your eyes must be a long way apart to get a flat perspective like that. When I stand that close to the side of a locost, I can see both seats and
both headlights! Must have my eyes too close together

The point is, if you saw 2 headlights or 2 seats. Then you would also see a bit of the nosecone or rear panel etc.. In that pic. its a mix between
both

The logo is basically this image:
http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-2008/bc/2008-Caterham-Seven-Superlight-R500-Side-1280x960.jpg
Modified into a two tone logo. It's therefore a Caterham.
Not sure who did the Photoshop though.

I was wondering why it didn't look right (apart from being a catering van) 
Glad someone pointed it out, so I don't have to think about it.

I hope Caterham aren't reading this. They'll be on to their copyright solicitors before you can say Ron Champion!

Splitting hairs here a little aren't we. I think it looks great as it is. It is a logo after all, not mean't to be a photographic image.

it would IMHO if the farthest front light was nearer the fornt of the car than the nearest one - to match the seat and roll bar
Either way its better than the last one, much more up to date
Time for a change!
