Jensen Interceptor MK 2 1970 1971

General description : Jensen Interceptor MK 2 1970 for sale
Exterior: The Jensen Interceptor looks very cool in this blue colour, but from factory it was claret with black leather. There is no rust showing, but the body has some smaller dents, scratches and cracks in the paint. Chrome parts are decent, and the entire car will make a great daily driver.
Interior: The interior has super nice original black leather. Dashboard and instruments all look very nice. The big Webasto Tudor sunroof makes a big difference. For me, it is a better solution than convertible since it is very easy to open and close, lets the right amount of wind into the car and still gives you that open air convertible feeling. Being a MK2, it has that nice round back seat. Original steering wheel. Was original with AC, but this is not working today.
Engine: The engine in the Jensen Interceptor MK2 from 1970 is the very powerful E engine with 330hp. Recent service with new fluids, fans have just been revised and are working fine. Starts easily and gives a mean sound. Automatic gearbox also working normally.
History: This car was imported to Sweden in September 1985 and I assume it was originally from U.K. considering it is a right-hand drive car. Looks like it has had 2 owners over the years here in Sweden and I bought this car in 2017. It was taken trough Technical Inspection (MOT) here in Sweden June 2019 and was all ok.

About Jensen
The story of Jensen cars is a tale of British automotive craftsmanship and innovation that left a lasting impression on the world of luxury automobiles. Jensen, a relatively small automaker, managed to carve a niche for itself with its elegant and handcrafted vehicles.

In the Beginning:
The Jensen story begins in 1934 when brothers Richard and Alan Jensen founded Jensen Motors Limited in West Bromwich, England. They initially started as a coachbuilding business, but their passion for automobiles led them to develop their own cars.

Jensen Models:
Jensen produced a range of models over the years, each with its own unique character and appeal.

Jensen Interceptor:
The Interceptor, introduced in the 1950s, is one of the most iconic models produced by Jensen. It was a luxurious and high-performance grand tourer that combined elegant styling with powerful engines. The Interceptor was known for its exceptional build quality and craftsmanship.
Jensen CV8:
The CV8, launched in the early 1960s, was another notable model. It was a fast and sophisticated sports car with a distinctive design. The CV8 was powered by a V8 engine, which contributed to its impressive performance.
Jensen Healey:
In the early 1970s, Jensen collaborated with Donald Healey to create the Jensen-Healey. This sports car was known for its affordability and fun-to-drive character, making it accessible to a broader range of enthusiasts.
Jensen GT and Jensen S-V8:
Jensen continued to produce vehicles with the GT and S-V8 models in the 1970s and early 2000s, respectively. The GT was a fastback version of the Interceptor, while the S-V8 was a modern take on the classic Jensen sports car.
Challenges and Closure:
Like many British automakers, Jensen faced financial challenges and ownership changes over the years. These difficulties ultimately led to the closure of the company in the early 2000s.

Legacy:
Despite its challenges, Jensen left behind a legacy of luxurious, handcrafted automobiles that were appreciated for their unique character and design. Their commitment to quality and craftsmanship made them stand out in the world of British motoring.

In conclusion, the story of Jensen cars is a testament to British ingenuity and the pursuit of excellence in automotive design and craftsmanship. While Jensen may not have achieved the same level of recognition as some larger automakers, their cars continue to be celebrated for their elegance and individuality by collectors and enthusiasts alike
