Lister Storm in a field
Discussion
It only turned up yesterday so perhaps "residing" is a bit misleading. It's not like it's been sat there for weeks/months.
The chap whose field it is always has various old Jags parked up and I believe he's into restoration. Since the Storm used a modified Jag V12 maybe there's going to be an engine transplant into one of the XJSs he's got there at the moment?

It is complete with engine etc or just a shell? It seems bizarre to have something so potentially valuable just sitting on an unsecured trailer.
The trailer looks decent too!
PS. It would seem it uses a Lister developed Chevrolet V8 of some sort and not a V12.

Sounds like a good bet. Maybe giving it an overhaul of some sort.The chap whose field it is always has various old Jags parked up and I believe he's into restoration.

Lister are in Surrey which isn't a million miles away so may have come from there?
It's like the guy who does my exhausts. Hidden away in Slough, Turn up and he's doing a exhaust for a Lola MG, Lotus Esprit with V8 Audi Engine and my friends Lotus 23B. Last place on earth it thought i would see a Lola MG sitting outiside with all the body off
That is very odd indeed. I assume the chap has bought it as a restoration.
This is the Storm LMP by the way, disctinct from the Storm GT which was also sold as a road car.
Although Lister are known for Jag tuning - and that marque really does need reviving as Jaguar's equivalent of Brabus - the newer LMP cars have Judd power I think.
The Lister Storm LMP,
Engine: 6 litre V8, 5990cc, bore 4.180", stroke 3.330", 2 valve per cylinder, 530bhp through 2 x 31.3 restrictors

Suspension: Top and bottom wishbone rocker type, pull rod front, push rod rear, Penske dampers, Eibach springs
Brakes: AP Racing, Hitco carbon
Wheels: BBS
Tyres: Dunlop
Telemetry: MoTeC
