Introduced in 1966, the Jensen FF was the first non-all-terrain car with both four-wheel drive and ABS
Named FF for its four-wheel drive system (Ferguson Formula), it is powered by a Chrysler 6. 3-litre V8 engine, producing 330bhp through a TorqueFlite automatic transmission, ensuring impressive performance
MMA 40H, Chassis #119 165 is one of 195 Series 1 cars. Delivered in summer 1969 it was registered for Auto Masters Ltd After 30 years with the first owner, it was sold or gifted to Mr John Marsh (Auto Master’s director) in 2000, who kept it for four years. Three more owners followed before our vendor
Originally white, the car now has a Royal Flag Blue exterior with a silver roof, retaining its original black leather interior and Walnut fascia
The Jensen comes with a detailed history file in a green leather binder, including £40, 000 in invoices, historic MOTs, tax, insurance records, and V5Cs. The file also includes an application form for the Jensen Owners Club, detailing the car's care
After long-term storage, Mr Marsh commissioned a restoration in 1991 which was completed in 1993. More recently the car has been maintained by marque experts, Cropredy Bridge Garage with extensive invoices showing no expense spared
A rare blend of Italian styling, American motivation and clever British engineering, this rare Grand Tourer remains beautifully presented and seems very sensibly guided considering the quality on offer
