It would be quite difficult to find a classic car in this price region which gives the same value as a Jensen Interceptor actually has everything in it to become a very expensive car.
If you do not think of the fact that a Jensen is extremely undervalued and if you should play a game with somebody who has a lot of knowledge about classic cars then you must do a riddle.
Ask the person who has a lot of knowledge about cars what sort of car you are talking about if you describe the following aspects.
Hand made in the UK
Big and extremely powerful engine
Electric roof
Electric windows
4 disc brakes
A body which was designed by Carrozzeria Touring
Small amount built (only 509)
One would easily think of a Rolls Royce, a Bentley or an Aston Martin but one would not easily think of a Jensen.
By comparing the prices, it is almost unbelievable that the Jensen is so undervalued. As described above the car has almost every aspect to be a very expensive collector car but nowadays it is possible to buy this car for a reasonable amount of money (still a lot, but not in comparison for the power and looks one can buy for the money).
This specific Series III is in a very impressive condition. The car has been nut and bolt restoration without looking at expenses. Almost everything has been done on the car and the looks are superb.
The color combination which is dark green with light beige interior is excellent.
The Jensen has the most impressive 7.2 liter Chrysler V8 engine which gives a very impressive sound and amongst all drives superb. If one gives gas it gives a fantastic feeling but if one is driving relaxed it is great to have an engine which does not make to many revs.
Looking further in the car it is absolutely amazing how much luxury one has inserted. The leather seats but also the leather dashboard is extremely nice made.
Overall this specific car is restored on a very high level. The exterior as well as the interior is extremely nice and when one looks into the engine bay one can understand why this Jensen has cost so much money to restore.
IN SHORT, A FANTASTIC JENSEN IN A UNIQUE CONDITION WHICH COSTS NOW ONLY A VERY SMALL PART OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT INVESTED!
