Jensen GT 257: Here we are!

Post by Pit13 »

Hello to all Jensen-Owners in the world!

Susanne and Peter, wellknown from the famous and fantastic 2015 Cornwall & Devon Tour, proudly present the giant, dark blue, LHD, fabulous GT!
We were very happy with the GT on the Cornwall Tour.
The GT ran beautiful all the time!

Greetings to all, have a good time and hopefully see you soon.

Susanne and Peter from Monreal, Germany (near the Nürburgring)

PS:
Hereby we promise never to leave Sausages, Beer or Sauerkraut in the GT overnight!

Not sure if I said this in Cornwall but that is a lovely car, nice to see it still has the trim around the front indicators.

Good looking GT !! Nice license plate too. Did you buy this car in Belgium? I remember it used to be owned by a guy in Brussels, but I forgot his name. The car joined our 25th club anniversary meeting (foto)in between Klaus Pape's and mine.

Hi Han,

you're right, it is exactly that specific GT. Some work necessary to get it TÜV ready in September, just in time for the Cornwall Tour.

Here it is - again in nice company:

There is or was another one. Dark Brown metallic with a Britax folding roof. I should have a photo somewhere :roll:
So yours, Klaus's, Jens's and the brown one makes four. I wouldnot be surprised if there are more even.

Han,

I do not have and never had a GT, we just did the work to get the car TÜV'ed and registered. Peter is my brother and it is Susi's and his car ...

I met this GT and his owner on a classic car meeting in Hanover last year (I think he's registered but rarely on the forum, didn't remember his name :oops: )...so with this one at least 4 :wink:

Han,

HI stands for Hildesheim, some 25 km south of Hannover.

I don't like red cars in general but I have to admit that this specific (tomato?) red suits the GT absolutely fine. Great colour.

Do you know the owner Christian?

As said, I can't remember his name. But I think Schorse should know him (he told me he knows the owner of a white GT in Hannover).
