Historic automotive royalty in the workshop at Tom Lenthall Ltd.

We currently have this magnificent 1990 Lister Le Mans V12 in our care for a comprehensive inspection and general maintenance.

This particular vehicle is a highly significant survivor, configured as a rare, Naturally Aspirated (NA) 7.0-litre variant.

Hand-built during Lister’s iconic early-90s era, it strips away the twin superchargers found on other variants in favour of a pure, linear, high-displacement driving experience - producing roughly 500bhp from its heavily modified, blueprinted Jaguar-based powerplant.

With total global production of the Lister Le Mans limited to roughly 20 to 30 units, having a these Lister Le Mans on our ramps is always a privilege.

We enjoy working on these special cars for our customers ensuring they retain their peak performance and mechanical integrity.

Yesterday at Classic Sports Car Club with the Classic Sports Car Club we debuted the livery on Tom’s Jaguar XJS, the legendary Martini Racing livery!

While we usually associate Jaguar’s racing glory with the iconic Silk Cut Livery, or British racing green, there is a link to Jaguar.

In the early 1990s, privateer teams famously ran the Jaguar XJ220 in the Italian GT Championship adorned in Martini’s signature stripes.

The Martini livery is arguably one of the most recognisable in motorsport history. First appearing in 1968, its classic dark blue, light blue, and red stripes have graced some of the most dominant machines ever built, such as Porsche and Lancia.

Tom and Luke were sharing the XJS for the final round of the season and did a Jaguar Championship race each with Tom coming 3rd in class and 4th overall. finishing 4th in class and 5th overall.

Sadly their 2 driver race was cut short owing to cracked exhaust manifold but most importantly the support from the paddock made sure we got Luke out his race. Special thanks to & Tom Barclay.

We are already ready looking forward to next season! Bring on 2027!

The versatility of the Jaguar F-Type range in practice…

Body: Coupe or Convertible
Engine: 2L, 3L or 5L
Transmission: Auto or Manual
Driveline: 2WD or 4WD
Style: Original or Facelift

Just missing an SVR and a Project 7 to complete the collection!

But the real question is… which one are you taking home? 👇

A well known X308 XJR has been in the workshop, following a call from the .smallest.cog.

The Jaguar that purchased for the second time is now back in full health and Tom enjoyed resolving the issue this with the team!

The adventure continues…

Out on the road with Alex Kersten Rory McKie Taylor Hetherington as the epic journey continues.

Gertrude, Mercedes-Benz G280, is certainly earning her keep!

Despite the 47°C heat and running two cylinders down, this old G-Class is still pushing on and taking everything the journey can throw at her.

It’s been fantastic to be part of the adventure so far, with plenty of incredible scenery, challenging miles and memories being made along the way.

What a day at Food&Fuel – Up The Hill at Shelsley Walsh, The Hill!

Tom took the Jaguar XE SV Project 8 along, and it felt particularly special bringing the P8 back to Shelsley Walsh.

Back in 2017, Jaguar launched the Project 8 with an orange P8 attacking the famous Shelsley Walsh hill climb as part of the car’s launch activity.

Fast forward nearly a decade and we were back at the same hill with our own Project 8 - and what a way to spend the day!

The original Jaguar launch video really captured what made this car so special: 592bhp, four-wheel drive, a huge amount of noise and a Jaguar that was never afraid to be completely outrageous.

Seeing the P8 back at Shelsley Walsh, surrounded by some incredible cars and enthusiasts, was a brilliant reminder of just how special this car is.

Huge thanks to everyone at Food&Fuel for putting on such a fantastic event, and to everyone who came over to see the Project 8 and have a chat.

Always great to catch up with the wonderful car community!

The next Porsche chapter.

The Carrera 2S has now found its new home, so the search begins for what comes next…

A 997.2 Turbo PDK.

The facelifted 997 Turbo brings together everything Tom loves about this generation of 911 — the iconic shape, 500 PS, four-wheel drive and Porsche’s PDK gearbox.

We are looking for the right car, rather than simply the next car. Specification, condition, history and provenance will all be important.

The Porsche factory images used here are from the Porsche Newsroom media library, featuring the 997.2 Turbo and Walter Röhrl, and are used as reference/library imagery rather than representing the exact car currently being sought.

Do you have a 997.2 Turbo PDK that might be of interest? Or know of one that could be coming to market?

Please get in touch — we’d be very interested to hear from you.

The hunt is on.
