Originally the S3 was supposed to accommodate up to 6\u20193\u201d driver and shorter passenger. This one seems to have an extended passenger footwell like on the newer ones. It has more room in the passenger footwell than my other 1997 Caterham. My friend is 6\u20191\u201d and fits fine. I have not tried 6\u20193\u201d.", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1722187847, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 15107016, "authorName": "Pastoril", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/pastoril/", "bidAmount": 17500, "content": "$17,500 bid placed by Pastoril", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1722187884, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 15107062, "authorName": "Senorpetty (The Seller)", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/senorpetty/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "@drakman I think it came with a very thick coating or powder coat from the factory and someone just sprayed something thinner on later.
