The Jensen Owners' Club

I have just found my handbook from my 1976 Interceptor that I sold a few years ago it's in great condition, if anyone is after one I have just put it on eBay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/113003902080?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649" onclick="window.open(this.href);re...

I see you are near Bolton I always use this guy near Blackpool http://www.thetrimtechnician.com/ John and Kath used to work at TVR he has done quite a few cars for me including my interceptor and he is not silly with his prices I highly recommended him....here are a few before and afters he has done...

How can anyone put that pic as the main one in the eBay listing? I am sure you will have all seen it the advert is to have one restored at nearly £50k but most people will have not read the advert and thought this was a genuine car for sale, they really should alter it as it is doing them no favours...

The car sold this week I am not sure what it went for as it was SOR but I think it was near to the asking price. As I say I still think it was a cheap car compared to other 70s era cars like the Elan TR6 and some MGCs. The Jensen was always a niche way above these cars when new but most nice interce...

I am not going this because my cars for sake but I do think that a good interceptor is a bargain at the moment this mg is more than I am asking for my car!

That Aston is over 20k cheaper than the elan....crazy!

I still think good genuine well restored interceptors are still way too cheap I notice Paul Matty's have a restored Elan Sprint fixed head just in at 55k! I know totally different cars but same era and a good guide to where classic prices are at the moment...plus I bet it sells.

That's true but to be honest I don't think that centre arm rest is that important a small piece of black leather will soon put that right if you don't like it. The fact it has new leather including£250 pounds worth of new foam cushions that make such a big difference to sit on compared to nearly 40 ...

Yes it is my car I am in the states for 2 months it is on SOR I want 35k for the car.

I am seriously starting to think if I put mine up for sale at £35k I might be regretting it in only 6 months.....I had a friend that sold his house before the last boom he sat on the money for 9 months and he couldn't afford a similar house or his own that had nearly gone up by a third!....Crazy

And I think my posts is a warning to anyone who thinks there are bargain Interceptors out there at that price there might be but trust me they are few and far between.

My car in question I think is fairly valued at £35k but one has to remember that 9 years before it had its last bodywork restoration it had a £32k restoration by one of the leading specialists Cropredy. I have spoken with the son of the previous owner who had the car he said it looked great and was ...

Thanks Paul there has been some serious bodywork done to the car as you can see, I will put it up for sale soon and will give members on here 1st chance. I have been told by several classic car dealers that I know that £39k is the price I should ask and that in 12 months that could well be a cheap c...

Thanks that's not too far from what I thought, thanks for the exporting advice Ronnie but I am not up to that I have other plans in the States.

I will be emigrating to live with my son and daughter in the USA this year I will soon be getting my green card but I am keeping my business here in the UK. I am considering either selling my 1976 Interceptor if I can get a good price for it or keeping it in stowage as they will without doubt increa...
