I suggest you check the spare tyre actually has some air and pay for continental cover. Steve That is the most important couple of items. I think you're unlikely to need anything else. If you do need something Fedex should be able to get it to you overnight (except at weekends). On all the internat...

Thanks for all the replies - it seems that I am not the only one to suffer from unreliable refurbished and new parts. Generally I am not too worried as I can usually jury rig something to get me home or get recovered. But since I tend to do one or two trips to Europe each year, I really want the car...

I wondered if it is only I who seem to have been unlucky or if there is a general drop off in the quality of new and refurbished parts. I have maintained my SP for the last 40 years, covered over 100,000 miles and have replaced nearly all of the parts you would expect, some of them more than once. R...

The JOC website gives a lot of information on the cars and models joc.org.uk The chassis number will tell you if it is a SP or Mk III Six packs are available from summit racing and can be fitted to any 440 engine, but a different cam is required or the outers will not open. The SP also has a higher ...

Yes I did the Stelvio two years ago in the SP and had a great time. Also came up the other way (not sure exactly from where) and there were no cars on the road, but it was just as twisty and steep. I remember the tail coming out once or twice and having to lean down to see the left hand hairpins as ...

Adam has had his holiday approved and so it will be two cars and two rooms. Really looking forward to this trip.

My wife calls my SP "the mistress"!

BHP is in the Jensen handbook that came with the car.

The rest are from an Autocar road test 7 October 1971

Figures I have for the SP are
385 bhp
Torque 490 lb ft
Max speed 143 mph
0-60 6.9 secs
0-100 16.8 secs
0-120 25.6 secs
Standing 1/4 14.8 secs

As a kid my parents, brothers and I came toCelerina quite a few times (probably had something to do with having Swiss grandparents!) and we used to ski in St Moritz. Seeing the ski map brings back old memories. No Piste Bashers, no release bindings and massive moguls by the end of the season. All a ...

I am interested in attending.

I have owned my SP since 1983 and it has been on the road for most of the time since then. I have kept records of all the fuel used and thought it would be interesting to share the analysis I recently carried out. The first chart shows the mileage covered per year and the litres of fuel used. Over t...

Truly amazing, but doesn't seem to work so well for the Jensen Healey, creating a picture of an Austin Healey.

I drive mine all year round, but generally not if roads are salted. Generally try and drive in the dry, but if the forecast is a bit iffy, I tend to take it anyway and if it rains so be it. I generally do 6 to 8000 mile per year. So my option isn't on the poll - all year round but generally in the d...

We will be there as long as it is not monsoon conditions!
