Jensen has nostalgisten an unprecedented attraction, but it was also a pretty famous British brand. Helped by the recent retro-revival makes Jensen are now in for a renaissance, and this is the GT…as a clay model.
In addition to the GT says Jensen (formal name: The Jensen Group) is also working on a successor for the legendary Interceptor, which – logically – Interceptor 2 is going to be called. At the helm is Tim Hearley a former Aston Martin boss, who apparently still has connections at Jaguar, for he has for his clay model of a set of F-Type taillights borrowed.
In 2016, wants Jensen to his new model ready to have, where you have to think of a small circulation and a high degree of personalization, as it is just so British stuff from Eagle. Here is a corresponding price tag on it is self-evident: compared to Autocar, the company a number of £350,000 to fall.
A prototype of the GT, meanwhile, worked hard, the Interceptor 2 is a concern for below. The former model would be the more raw of the two, but something more sophisticated than a muscle car, so add the British. So-called mja, if you’re there for almost a half a million euros want to ask we can also do something more than the average Camaro expect seems to us to be so.
No connection with Healey Sports Cars
Incidentally, the owners just as little with the other Jensen-revival 2011 – Healey Sports Cars – to make as with a non-funny radio dj’s with a thick head, and therefore the trademark rights purchased and secured; that not more ‘Jensens’ of a different author may appear. We are wondering if the lord will succeed a product.
UPDATE 1: More information seeps within. the aluminum-composite Jensen gets – not very surprisingly – a GM V8, which is stroked can be up to about 675 supercharged horsepower. The creators of the RWD-coupe aiming for a weight of 1530 kg. Buyers can choose from a six-speed automatic transmission or a manual gearbox with as many corridors.
UPDATE 2: Unfortunately, in Geneva was no Jensen in sight…
