Jensen Interceptor FF
 

I've always wanted one but never been able to justify the grief.....

Love them, but from a total production of around 300-350 I can't imagine there's many left. For proper rarity would have to be the soft top version lol think they only made a handful.

There was one at the Goodwood breakfast club the other week, plus I know there's one in the Brooklands Museum that used to belong to Ricardo and was used for testing - aside from the revolting mustard coloured paint it's probably one of the best non-restored Interceptors around

Fantastic. always liked them.

Wonderful vehicles :)
Had one, just the Boggo one (if you could ever describe one as that), not the FF, the SP, or the drop top....

It may have been a ropey old shed, but I loved it, while it lasted :)

I found them average-looking, not quite ugly, but not far off. The nose looked pretty similar to the NSU Ro80, but I found the NSU a prettier car.

Nice beefy V8 motor though. +++

Loved them ever since I can remember. The FF being the first 4 wheel drive production sports car. +++

Nearly bought a very early Vignale built MK1 2WD a couple of years ago in the pale blue of the original Earls Court show vehicle.

Wish I had gone through with it :(

Nice car... Got the original brochure for this one too, so I guess it must be cool +++

Respect!

Looks like I really picked one judging by the responses. +++
(always been one of my dream cars since not long after puberty...)

Just to join, I too have always, and still do regard the Interceptor as a true classic, not sure how anyone could ever describe them as approaching ugly, that mad piece of glass in the rear never stops moving, there isn't a flat on it anywhere!!
Incidentally, another first for the FF model was Dunlop Maxaret brakes, first production car to ever have ABS, that EVERYONE takes for granted now!!
I have promised myself one before I die.
Picking up on Nollywoods mention of the Ro80, I believe I may be involved in a photo shoot later on having my 3.7 A8 parked next to an Ro80, if this ever occurs, I'll be sure to upload piccys!!

Best Regards to all,
Steve

Good ones are really appreciating in value, despite the 'economic situation' out there :(
