Autocar - First for car news and reviews

Lovers of one particular classic British sports car marque will today be mulling over the prospect of a sports car that’s at once brand new and 41 years old; that’s because Jensen is about to launch the Interceptor S, a fully restored and updated version of the famous Interceptor that could be capable of humbling some much younger machinery.

 I look forward to seeing them in the flesh, as it were, and hope they are a success for the frim as im sure they will be. i just wish i had the funds to purchase one myself!!!!!

 

WOW, I always thought the name offered more than the car itself, despite this I love it.

 The Interceptor S is still wonderful. It looks fantastic, as always and sounds superb. I am just wondering....when is the Predator/Interceptor going to be available for you to test? That re-vamped Interceptor looks absolutely stunning, inside and out and brings a motoring icon right up to date.

   Great to see Jensen ( albeit V-Eight ) back, they were sorely missed. My only suggestion would be to put the Jaguar 5.0 V8 Supercharged engine under the bonnet, instead of a yank LUMP. The car IS British, after all. Or, maybe the Aston V12 engine?????
