Description

This is going to be a truly spectacular Jensen interceptor MK1
Just a handful of owners and a very low recorded mileage
The first owner indeed being Lord Clifford of Chudleigh Devon ..

This vehicle was built in the factory colour of Metallic Fawn with Mocha leather .
Our research has shown very few were made in this colour and indeed we are aware that only a handful had the Mocha leather this indeed could be the only one left.

We are doing a full restoration.
The Engine alone has had many hours lavished on it, and the engine bay presents like new.
The engine has been fully stripped and rebuilt.
The vehicle has had a complete bare metal repaint to a very high standard.
All of the underneath has been fully refurbished.
The interior has been fully retrimmed.
We have spent vastly more then we will get back making this is Jensen the best there is..

We have done this to the same standard as a Mercedes 190 SL we sold at auction two years ago it making a world record of £226, 000, which has never been beaten since .
This example is to the same quality as that Mercedes.
The colour is simply spectacular.
We were indeed lucky enough to find a FF in the same colour not far from ourselves and we managed to get a paint match off of that beautiful example that the owner has had many years.
This is not the cheapest Jensen.
But it will be one of
We anticipate it being finished, hopefully by the end of April/ beginning of May .
Do get in touch if you have any interest or wish to discuss.

Please note further photos will be added as and when the car progresses

Update July 24 car is almost finished !!!

November 24 .. this Stunning vehicle is now finished !!
We had the pleasure of taking it to the grandson of the first owner, Lord Clifford earlier this year for photo shoot at the ancestral house
This Jensen is heavily featured in the ancestral home tour with some very interesting stories

A Outstanding example of this iconic car
In arguably one of the rarest, colour combinations
A factory Metallic Fawn !!!!

This vehicle is now complete ( December 24 ) without doubt, probably one of the best you are going to see it is a beautiful example, in a striking and very rare colour
We are advised there are no other examples with this colour combination left!!
Metallic Fawn is without doubt one of the most striking colour combinations with the mocha leather. It is simply sensational.
With the titled previous ownership and the wonderful stories, the car has along the way during the ownership. It really is a one off.!!
As is often the case, we got too carried away and spent vastly too much money
However, it is important this car find the right home
I feel certain Lord Clifford will love to have it back down to his ancestral home in Devon
And most certainly the next owner may well find the guided tour of the property mention in there car very interesting.

Do get in touch if you have any interest or wish to discuss further..
