Sometimes, we don't need ostentatious observations or persuasive parlance to sell a story. This is one of those occasions. Because, up for sale on the classifieds this week, is a one-of-a-kind, 5.0-litre, V8 F-Type R, tuned and released from British sports car manufacturer and famed Jaguar tuner, Lister.
The Lister LFT-666 (previously known as Lister Thunder) was originally limited to 99 units, but as this is a new shape F-Type, this one is said to be unique. Apparently it was purchased new by the first and only owner and taken "almost immediately" to Lister. We admire that level of organisation. Not to mention dedication.
You can check out the full list of conversion modifications in the listing, but just to whet your whistle, there's that all-important engine tuning up to 675hp, adjustable suspension upgrades, 22-inch staggered forged alloy wheels plus green-painted brake calipers with the Lister logo.
That's on top of the long list of factory specifications, which include the usual carbon fibre interior elements and ebony and oyster leather performance seats. There's also plenty of green highlights and Lister logos scattered inside and out, just to prove to the world this isn't just your common-or-garden Jaaaag.
It even keeps its Jaguar manufacturer's warranty until November 2023, which is something you rarely get to say when you're buying souped-up mods from the used market. And, from experience, the Lister modifications really are something to behold. You'll even get change from £100k...
