The Lister Motor Company has revealed the
convertible version of the LFT-666, a specially modified Jaguar F-Type that
packs really serious levels of firepower. Jaguar’s
supercharged 5.0-liter V8 is now tuned to produce no less than 666 hp, making
the new Lister LFT-C capable of hitting 100 km/h from a standstill in
just over 3 seconds and achieve a top speed of 330 km/h.
Lister will produce just 10 examples in total, each
featuring their exclusive carbon-fiber body panels. The bodywork of Lister’s
take on the F-Type includes a new front bumper and splittera rear diffuser and
lip spoiler, rear extended wheel arches, a new grille design and a set of
lightweight alloy wheels.
The cabin of the LFT-C, which will be built to each
customer’s exact specification, is completely retrimmed by hand, featuring the
finest Nappa hides from Bridge of Weir leather. A numbered plaque made out of
solid silver will be affixed to the engine cover. Pricing for the new LFT-C starts
from £ 139,000 (US$ 184k in current exchange rates), with the company
offering an “almost unlimited” options list to its customers.
The new Lister LFT-C follows the hard-top LFT-666,
which was limited to just 99 cars globally. Customer deliveries started in
January, with cars heading as far as Australia and Canada. The British company
saying that the entire allocation for 2019 is already sold out; customers can,
however, still place an order for a delivery in early 2020.
In addition, Lister is also offering body kits and
new wheels for all Jaguar F-Type models worldwide, with the packages starting
from £ 9,750 (US$ 12,900 in current exchange rates) for the Lister badge, bumper
and wheel upgrade. F-Type models that receive this type of modification from
Lister are badged as Lister LFTs, with no horsepower designation
