Jaguar F-Type

Here at DMB Collection, we are delighted to market, this 1 of only few Lister Thunder, Jaguar F-Type!

The association between Jaguar and the specialist engineering firm Lister goes back many decades. After Jaguar decided to cease its racing efforts from 1957, Shell-Mex BP, coincidentally lead sponsor for both Jaguar and Lister, were keen to maintain a present on the track. The simple solution would be to take the powerful Jaguar engine and fit it to a Lister ((Light Engineering Ltd.) chassis, and then offer Jaguar factory support. The new Lister-Jaguars raced successfully in 1957, and so cemented the relationship between the two firms. The relationship was revived in the 1980s with the outrageous XJS-based Lister Le Mans and into the 1990s with the Jaguar V12-engined Lister Storm, which won the FIA GT Championship in 2000. Lister's role as Jaguar tuning partner of choice was sealed.

Under new ownership Lister launched the continuation Knobbly in 2013 and then the Lister Stirling Moss, before its announcement of the Jaguar F-Type based LFT-666 Coupe and LFT-C Roadster of 2018. Based on the Jaguar F-Type SVR model, the Lister features a highly tuned version of Jaguar’s 5.0 litre supercharged V8, producing naturally 666bhp, hence the name. This 96bhp boost in power is achieved with upgraded superchargers, custom intercoolers, performance air filters, and a remap of the engine management system. Dial in 720lb ft of torque and the LFT-666 smashes 0-60mph in 3.2 seconds on the way to a seriously impressive top speed of 208 mph. Upgraded suspension keeps the car on the road, and custom exhausts deliver the soundtrack to match its increased pace. Styling was improved with the use of carbon for the bodywork, sitting on custom Lister 21” forged wheels. At launch just 99 LFT-666 models were scheduled to be made, with a price tag of £139,950, and that was before one dipped into the tempting options list.
