History & Pedigree



The Jensen Interceptor is one of the most distinctive grand touring cars of its era hand-built in West Bromwich, England, combining Italian styling with American muscle.



Styled by the renowned Italian design house Carrozzeria Touring, the Interceptor features its signature long hood and iconic wraparound rear glass hatch.



Powered by a Chrysler big-block V8, these cars deliver strong torque and effortless cruising, making them true long-distance grand tourers.



With only around 6,400 produced worldwide, these cars are rare, and surviving examples especially complete, running cars are getting harder to find.

Its blend of luxury, exclusivity, and performance made it a favorite among celebrities and enthusiasts alike.
