    Autocar test of Listerbell

    http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-video/v...ter-real-thing

    Sorry if this has been posted before but I've just found it. I reckon Craig could walk on water at the moment - fantastic review!

    Not sure which issue of Autocar it will appear in though. Craig? - Just read that it will be in next weeks Autocar (11th December)

    Steve Sutcliffe, Autocar - But my favourite kit car of the day was the quite delightful Lister Bell STR, which looked and drove for all the world like a real Lancia Stratos – for just £30,000. “But you can buy a very nice second-hand Porsche Cayman for that sort of money” I hear you cry. To which I’d reply “Yes, I know. But I’d take the faster, lighter, far more lovely to look at and no less exciting to drive Lister Bell STR every time, thanks.”

    Do you know what, watching that video makes me wonder why I'm plonking around in an F355. Mmmm, I wonder.....
    Well done Craig.

    Do you think he liked the car?

    Excellent video, and you couldn't get better advertising than that. Really nice to actually finally hear it!

    Sat in a real one, may never wash again!

    Video was interesting. The LB looked very planted while driven hard, almost zero roll and no lairy tail happy slides to speak of. Took note on how slick that gearshift is, finger and thumb operation.

    Downloaded so I can watch it offline. 90mb in 720p, looks even better played back on TV.
