I’m reluctantly selling my fully nuts and bolts restored 541 as I’m living in Spain where I cannot maintain it
The car is fully restored by the Jensen experts Mike Byrne(from whom I Bought it)and Terry Harris over many years
This car is unique as it was the first production car in the world to have disc brakes on all four-wheels
It was on the Jensen Stand at the 1956 motor show and was then used by Colin Riekie acknowledged as the cars designer. It also features in Colin’s biography part 3 that’s here in the JOC site along with letters exchanged between Mike Byrne And Colin.The car was described by Colin Riekie as “at the very edge of known technology “
The car was on the Jensen stand at the classic car show at the excel exhibition centre 3 years ago. It also won an award at the JOC concours event in Derby
It has the number OEA541 as it was registered in West Bromwich by Jensen with the 541 number
The car can be viewed at Terry Harris’s workshop in Buntingford by appointment.
Serious interested parties please feel free to contact me on 07595221642 or pm me here
I have hundreds of photos
At each stage of the restoration
