Fire breathing Lister Stealth for sale

An outcome of Jaguar’s decision (let’s be honest, badly conceived) to become fully electric is that there is nothing new for Lister to set up his attention. This seems a shame, because for a while the company seemed to build a decent head of steam as an aftermarket tuner from Jaguar’s V8-driven output. The version of the F-Type, the LFT-666, certainly looked it. It was not for nothing that it was originally called ‘The Thunder’.

The same went for the F-Pace, which took the name ‘Stealth’ to everyone’s entertainment. Unless it was impossible for you, the resulting car had about the same to do with Stealth as an SR-71 Blackbird that rose from Heathrow. Lister had seen that with some customized styling tweaks and the kind of 21-inch rims that even made the SVR model that it was based on look shy and retired.

But most of the time it was about the 666 hp output. Lister called it ‘Britain’s Fastest SUV’ when it was launched, and although it has since been overtaken by various rivals (and at some distance when you are considering the 727 hp that Aston has summoned from the latest DBX), puts the fact that it is still placed up to 62 MPH in considerably less than 4 seconds. After all, it will do 195 MPH.

That was of course a large sales argument, although it probably outweighs the glowing presence of the thing, especially in black. While he came up, the SVR was clamped to a carefully cultivated family -friendly atmosphere; Lister threw this aside while it tried to beat the Germans and Italians during their own Kin-Jasing game. At the time, this was not the jam of everyone, not surprising, but in an increasingly homogenized landscape it does a good job to portray all Swashbuckling posture that you would expect from a car with a loud-N-Prompte Supercharged V8.

There is also the built-in compliments of a Lister badge. It not only includes the madness of the V12-driven storm, but also a heritage that comes all the way back to ’54 and the glory of the lumpy. The Stealth may not have the unique attraction of both Forerunner, but it is said that it is fewer than 100 examples worldwide, so it has a comparative rarity on its side, and is no less practical or well named than the SVR on which it was based. Moreover, if you are inclined to stitched leather upholstery.

Fortunately, from the perspective of a buyer, this has not prevented all that depreciation sets the lead. The last time we drawn your attention to a stealth, it was appreciated at £ 100k. This time, for a car with only 23k on the clock and two previous owners in the logbook, look at £ 65k. Still a large premium compared to a standard F-PACE SVR from 2019, Mind, but that is almost next to the point. Lister wanted his car to compete with Lamborghini for SUV -Dwaasy, and got a good way there. As game plans go, it was probably superior to the Jaguar with which Jaguar came.
