[Closed] I want, no, need THIS!

it looks like a fish tank with that rear window 😉

No........it looks amazing!

Looks like a mid-80s RX-7 got taken roughly from behind in a manly fashion by a Renault Fuego.

Weirdly, I'm not wholly convinced that's a bad thing. What the heck is it?

Ah, never mind, I worked it out.

my dad always wanted one of those when I was a kid

thought about buying/hiring him one (but didn't 🙁 ) a few yr ago - they were fairly cheap then

That is not a good look!

What the heck is it?

The yoof of today! 😆 Apart from the Jensen there must be so many beautiful things that you'll never see in the flesh, no CAD in that beauty. 😉

My dads mate used to build the original interceptors

One used to sit in the garage in the town i grew up. I remember being 5 up in a mates BL mini, when the Interceptor tore past. Lovely it was, Navy blue and shiny.

Jensen Interceptor. Ohhhhhhhhhh yes purleeeese! 🙂

VERY nice.... I'd have an AC Cobra however!

My mate's father had the 7.2 when I was at uni in the 90s. Don't think he ever got up to 10 mpg.

Not my cup of tea, but I can appreciate a classic.

😯

woof!

A car I lustred after as well - they had a 4wd version the FF2 Teh interceptor was perhaps one of the best look 4 seater GT cars ever made. Very advanced for a 60s car

The interior is bloody lovely too

our last f1 world champion was named for that very car!...true story

The burser at my school had one in navy. It was a thinkg if beauty. She also drove some sort of Aston converted Capri as I recall which looked like a capri blinged out by a james bond obsessed teenager. (Tickford?)

I remember someone jumping one of those into a pile of cars on Sat night telly years ago.

looks a bit like the mirthmobile in wayne's world

Unovolo - that thing looks like it would be more at home on the bottom of a sea bed scooping up plankton in a David Attenborough documentary 🙂

"With all 4 wheels gripping and driving, it is almost impossible to skid or spin the Jensen FF even on the iciest surface."

BORING! 🙄

The Jag wins hands down. I want. 😆

oh dear I've just found the most astonishing FF for sale...

The car was purchased from new by Peter Hall, RAF Pilot in WW2. He carried out many daring raids over German occupied europe, and was eventually shot down over Holland in 1943. Peter was then taken to Stallag Luft 3 as a POW. With a keen eye for detail, he forged many documents in the camp, and the character "The Forger" was based on him in the film, "The Great Escape".

you're welcome to any Jag, I'm about to build a mint!! 😀

I want one of these...

I think I'll still take the forgers FF, even over this:

But I don't think it would take a great deal of persuasion, maybe just a bit.
