Michael Cooper's Jensen Days: A Photographic History of Jensen Motors, 1966-1976

I have ended up with two copies of Michael Cooper’s book. I have one copy that is brand-new, still in its wrapping, and I’ve listed on eBay if anybody is interested in buying it at a reduced price. Here’s the link. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285214357966?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-235...

Hi, So being in a high risk group I now need to stay home apart from the occasional essential trip to my local GP. So I was wondering what I should do to keep my Jensen in the best possible condition until this lockdown ends. The car is in my garage and I can easily start it up and reverse it into t...

Re: 1973 Int. MKIII, Claimed 20,127 Miles from New

Modern air con, strange looking cooling fan !
Paintwork looks good.

Re: FF for Auction - Brightwells

Lots of cars at the same auction failed to sell, Classic car prices are very depressed at present because of all the political uncertainty. Great time to buy but not so good when your selling!

Re: 1974 Road Test of MK3 Interceptor.

Yes, I have often wondered about that, the V5 clearly states the date of 1st registration as 5 July 1973-so it should be an "L" but its been given an "M". I suppose someone at DVLA slipped up.

Car out at local meeting today.

Hi,
Great weather today and a chance to show the Jensen to some local car enthusiasts at Madingly Hall in Cambridge. I've just got it back after a repair of the rusty bits behind the rear wheels and its looking and driving fine.
