Over 30 years after Laurence Pearce developed the Lister Le Mans and the Lister Storm, we bring you the Thunder. Based on the superb Jaguar F Type and featuring a tuned version of the already potent Jaguar 5.0 litre Supercharged V8, which now produces a devilish 666bhp. Bespoke body and interior enhancements along with suspension and exhaust upgrades complete the package. Just 99 Lister Thunders will be produced in total meaning all owners will enter the exclusive Lister Drivers Club.
I imagine when you sold a car to a customer it had to be at least somewhat durable, but when you make one for yourself it doesn't matter if some of the welds crack and need rewelding by mid-season, provided you're winning races. Very cool story, and great to see new period Listers being made in the UK.
Interesting that he says "value for money" ... I'm not sure that is a major consideration in this market sector. The 2yr waiting list backs up the idea that this is too cheap !
Define replica.. If it’s made in the same factory, same tools, even the same engineers under the Lister name is it really just a replica or more than a continuation?
