A unique Jensen Interceptor: originally one of only 232 SP (Six Pack) cars built by Jensen in 1973, it then became - under the S moniker - the first prototype built Cropredy Bridge Garage, the historic workshop and Jensen centre of restoration and know-how excellence.
As the first model to undergo the complex procedure, it hailed a new era for Interceptors and sparked the first wave of enthusiastic interest when it was unleashed in 2006.
This Interceptor S started life as an original model (MkIII) and went through a total restoration process to bring the car back to its former glory, and infinitely more beyond it. Its current incarnation, the very desirable Interceptor R, is now marketed at £139k+ and restoration projects of original Interceptors can run well into six-figure investments.
Widely featured by the UK press at the time of the S series launch in 2006, this Interceptor S boasts the new General Motors-sourced (Corvette) V8 engine and management controls, fully satisfying all the latest emission regulations.
It features a GM fully electronic four-speed automatic gearbox connected to an uprated Salisbury hypoid unit. A sympathetically modified and greatly improved brake and suspension set-up ensures safe yet entertaining handling in all circumstances. Having achieved well documented and sustained coverage by classic car magazines, this specific car earned a glowing reputation and an enthusiastic reception from many a respected UK journalist.
This Interceptor S, finished in stunning midnight blue metallic paint, respectfully close to the original hue, has only covered 3,200 miles since its total rebuild.
A traditional soft tan leather interior complements the exterior colour making the car look perfectly at home within the English heritage scene. The S series Interceptors are now more in demand than ever: thanks to the upgraded package and the quality and reliability standards of work carried out by Cropredy Bridge, this model is a true future investment as well as one which fulfils everyday motoring needs for the classic car enthusiast.
