The Jensen Owners' Club

It seems that the historic tax exemption has been rolled forward 2 years. All cars manufactured before Jan. 1st 1976 now qualify. All you have to do is take your V5 to a motor tax post office, marked Historic Vehicle in the change section and signed. Then fill in aV10 tax application form and any re...

Hi GT6 Welcome to convertible motoring. The hood frame has a lot of pivot points which cause a lot of strain on the mechanism, so its very important to keep them well lubricated. My fame broke once near where it joins the pistons and was a b.... to repair. Also make sure you have released the hood f...

Hi Pymmie

I have contacted DVLA re my 1974 car and this was their reply; It may help if I explain that a vehicle must be manufactured and/or registered in the UK prior to the 1st of January 1974 to be registered in the taxation class of 'Historic'.

To repaint or not -- Thanks for the input guys. I am fortunate to have a 40 year old car that is not a pile of rust , original in my mind is body panels and paint, chrome, interior, engine and gearbox etc. As you say many service items are replaced over the years through necessity, and I suppose rep...

To repaint or not is the quandary I am in at the moment. My convertible is as it left the factory but now starting to bubble a little around the wheel arches and the front valance. I have the car to drive and enjoy but at the same time of course want to keep it tidy. The local paint man I have found...

There is now one less in Scotland, I have recently moved a green Mk.111 south over the border to Cumbria to keep my convertible company. However it will no doubt spend some time back over the border on tour. Maybe in May depending on the weather.

Hi Mark
I could be interested, it would make a change from heading north.

Hi Dave
I have some old reels, 3", 5" or 6" if that's any use.
Most are plain but one 5" is white "Scotch" and another has "BASF" on.
Free to a good home (well maybe a beer sometime!!)
