New Jensen Interceptor

[Tullamore]

Orders for the Interceptor SX are being taken now, and the buying price ain't for the faint of heart — £145,000, or right about $266,000 at today's exchange rate.

Cars will be made by V Eight Ltd: https://www.sibadesign.co.uk/v8/index.html

Where on the site was the information about the SX? All I could see was information about the S.

Now, these aren't really new cars, they're original interceptors that have been resto-modded. With just under 7000 of them originally built and around 1000 of them known to exist, I am a little middle of the road on the idea.

I just hope that the donor cars that were "carefully selected" weren't good restorable vehicles.

Is the SX the same way? Or are they roducing the bodies from scratch now as well?

When you can buy an original and completely update and restore it with legal high output engine for a fraction of that price, it does make you wonder if they will sell any.

Its looks like Cropredy Bridge Garage rebranded. The company website now says it's under the owneship of V Eight Ltd. Its been around quite a long time restoring Jensens so I'm a little more positive about the quslity of the proposed car than I think I would be than if it were an entirely new operation.

The site says nothing about the new car, not even in its "News"... how odd.

Maybe its a publicity ploy????

Oh well, I wish it were true.

Dream, Dream.
