Apart from the moulded facia cowl, virtually everything that isn’t upholstered in Connolly leather is treated to Wilton carpet, each front floor well being protected by a rubber heel mat.The facia is excellently laid out to the advantage of the six Smiths instruments and Kienzle clock.

The console on top of the tunnel is trimmed entirely in leather, though American market cars feature a polished wood inset.

Known as the Birmingham Ferrari the Jensen’s CV – including Italian styling, muscular American V8 power and an interior that would do a Rolls Royce proud – was the equal to any Aston Martin. Called FF (short for Ferguson Formula) this system beat the innovative Audi Quattro by 14 years, while other innovative features such as its Dunlop Maxaret anti-lock brakes are now taken for granted.

Good tyres help; Pirelli P4000 are said to suit the car well, although are becoming in short supply. II gave quite a marked V8 warble when opened up, while the Mk.III’s 7.2-litre engine is almost completely unobtrusive. ), 284-b.h.p. The body is gas and CO2 arc-welded to a massive tubular and boxed pressing chassis structure, which ensures strength and rigidity. This compares with every 2,500 miles for the DBS V8!Adwest power steering is fitted as standard, and while it is fractionally inferior in feel to that fitted to the Aston Martin, it is slightly lighter without being too light.

To enable more luggage to be carried, the rear parcel shelf within the boot lid can be removed by unscrewing a few knurled nuts.

A hand-brake lever of non-flyoff type nestles between the driver’s seat and the console, from where it operates self-adjusting pads on the rear discs and seems to have no problems holding the heavy car.In general the Interceptor’s handling is reasonable, its ride comfortable, while remaining firm enough to give good control without reverting to the sogginess of a Rolls-Royce system. However, it is far from being as sure-footed as the Aston, once again, and needs delicate control in the wet, particularly under power, when the rear end, in spite of a Salisbury Powr-Lok differential, can soon lose traction and sideways adhesion—and it is not an easy car to regain control of. Whilst it works, it is not the sort of detail I would .expect on a car of this class and I would hope that Jensen have plans to mount a finger-tip stalk on the vacant left-hand side of the steering column.

and virtually ran out of brakes, such was the thrashing they received. He admits that, while Jensen values are ascending, it remains a very slow curve. Like the Aston, the brakes become quite rough while driving around London, once again a fair amount of gearbox creep and high tickover speed needing their frequent, light application. For car advertisement be it an RETRO/CLASSIC/OLD-TIMER/NEW-TIMER, Coupe, MPV, SUV, Luxury Car, Commercial vehicle, OPC car or even an auction car. Sadly, what should have been a world-beating package was sullied by reliability problems causing Jensen to ditch technology that was probably too advanced for its time.

After rust-proofing the body receives two coats of primer and three coats of final finish, all rubbed down by hand, followed by underscaling. The stalk on the right controls winkers and headlamp flasher only, the dip-switch being an organ pedal for the left foot to operate, an old-fashioned feature which I wouldn’t mind if it weren’t for the fact that I use my left foot to operate the wide pendant brake pedal in this automatic car, and on occasions I have had to transfer my right foot to that pedal part way through braking in order to dip the lights.The central transmission tunnel is a massive structure which effectively isolates the driver from passenger, yet adds to the feeling of comfort while leaving adequate foot room.

limit notwithstanding.In a week when Joe Gormless was enjoying his Christmas holidays while the rest of the country suffered, when Barber announced his mini-budget aimed partly at some of the people who can afford Jensens, while I sorted out first-house mortgage problems of the sort which people who can afford Jensens are unlikely to experience, and while the IRA bombed London, one such bomb exploding not much more than a quarter-of-a-mile from where the Jensen was parked, merely driving this magnificent West Bromwich-built machine at a fraction of its potential proved an enormously therapeutic exercise. There are generous full-length door armrests with door-pull apertures, large ashtrays are fitted, and the bottom front corner of each door contains a radio speaker, a further two being fitted one on either side of the rear passenger seats.
I had been warned by an acquaintance that this emission controlled engine had poor throttle response, or at least the car he had driven had. This Interceptor has gained power steering (a period hydraulic type), and with it the ability to be parked without tearing its driver’s shoulder muscles.

By the end of 1972, JM/EXP/120 was completed and being used for testing. It’s a catalogue of proprietary parts, but all the more Sixties- British-specialist for that. Incredible thirst (circa 13mpg).Jensen also introduced a 4x4 version of the Interceptor called the FF, predating the Audi Quattro. And it still looks the part 45 years on.


Rear seats are deeply and separately shaped, split by a wide arm-rest containing two ash-trays and continuous with the front console, and after travelling in the rear of a Mk. in. The Interceptor name had been used previously by Jensen for the Jensen Interceptor made between 1950 and 1957 at the Carters Green factory. It used the Ferguson formula system designed and engineered by Major Tony Rolt along with Dunlop Maxaret mechanical anti-lock brakes and traction control – about 320 were made.This is the fourth Jensen FF I have owned.
