Lister - maker of 1993's fearsome Storm - returned to car-building under new ownership in 2013, with a race recreation of the amusingly named Knobbly. Nine sales have followed, amassing over £3 million in total, so now managing director Lawrence Whittaker has announced the next step in his plan: a 250mph hypercar with a 7.8-litre, 1000bhp supercharged V12 core.
Its price tag? A projected £2,000,000, putting the as-yet-unnamed Lister in a ballpark that makes the McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 look like budget options. Scepticism naturally follows supercar projects with sky-high targets, so TG exclusively spoke to Whittaker to delve further into his plans.
