208mph Lister Thunder - Modernised Heritage
Lister is building only 99 of its monstrous 208mph Lister Thunder - inspired by the racing of old.
The all new Lister Thunder has just been revealed and boy are we excited! The historic motorsport icons claim the Thunder has a top speed of 208mph and a 0-60 time of just 3.2 seconds! To put that into perspective, that's Lamborghini Huracan speeds. It is also around £15,000 less than its Italian competitor, bringing the Lister Thunder into real super car territory.
Unfortunately, Lister hasn't yet given us the full details for the Thunder, but this is what we do know: The engine is a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 boasting an impressive 666bph with 720lb ft of torque. Its top speed is 208mph with a 0-60mph time of 3.2 seconds and will reach 100mph in just under 7 seconds.
The exterior of the car has been tastefully fine tuned and tweaked from the original F-Type shape with Carbon fibre front and rear spoilers which help with downforce as well as unique looking carbon fibre exhaust tips and a lightweight exhaust system which apparently saves over 10kg in weight.
Naturally, the interior is also just as lavish with leather seats and completely customisable trim to your specification. "The brief to the design team at Lister was simple; To design and build the fastest, most powerful and most luxurious production Lister ever made. The Lister Thunder answers and exceeds this brief in every respect." Tiff Needell - Lister Racing Driver
The Thunder also comes with fully adjustable dampers, custom brake calipers, Michelin tyres and mega 22" rims.
The Lister Thunder will cost £139,950 and will be unveiled exclusively next month at Historic Motorsport International, staged at London’s ExCeL, from the 15th-18th of February, where full details of this exciting new limited-production Lister supercar for the 21st Century will be revealed.
