Eyrewell Forest Motor Company are pleased to present to market this one owner NZ New Jensen Interceptor III (Last one imported into NZ)
A rare opportunity to purchase the last Jensen Interceptor that came into New Zealand brand new.
Low mileage original example stored under a 'glove' car cover its whole life.
The Jensen Interceptor is a grand touring car which was hand-built at the Kelvin Way Factory in West Bromwich, near Birmingham in England, by Jensen Motors between 1966 and 1976. The Interceptor name had been used previously by Jensen for the Jensen Interceptor made between 1950 and 1957 at the Carters Green factory. Jensen had extensively used glass-reinforced plastic for the fabrication of body panels in the preceding two decades, but the new Interceptor was a return to a steel body-shell. The body was designed by an outside firm, Carrozzeria Touring of Italy, rather than the in-house staff. The early bodies were built in Italy by Vignale, before Jensen took production in house, making some subtle body modifications.
The Mark III, introduced in 1971, revised the front grille, headlamp finishers and bumper treatment again. It had GKN alloy wheels and air conditioning as standard, and revised seats. The 7.2-litre 440 ci introduced in 1971 was the largest offering ever from the company and produced an unprecedented 385hp.
This model in question came with factory appointed extras including Voxson Radio/8 track cartridge player, Wood Console, Mushroom Sheepskin Insert seats, Coachline Gold hand painted pin stripe.
Register included with the car confirms all the number match its production and destination.
