This is my MK1 Vignale bodied interceptor that I have had for a couple of years now. I bought it from the original owner family in 2017.
Ulric has a good write up on the car on his site http://www.jensenmuseum.org/vignale-jensen-1172544/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Lovely looking car! The wheels look great. Are they wider than standard?

Re: 117/2544
I also wanted to talk about the wheels FFPL, they look so great as does the car, beautiful.. I know we touched on the subject a few years ago but never really got to the bottom of it all, are they widened/banded original rostyles? or are they a similar brand maybe from the USA? any help would be very much appreciated FFPL
Many thanks sport .. and your car is a credit to you..have one of these FFPL>>
Edit:
Very interesting read from the link to Ulrics site Paul.. thank you, I read this about the wheels>>
The Rostyle wheels have previously been modified (2000s), and are now wider than originally fitted.
So that answered my question then

Yes the wheels have the original centres with a widened and larger diameter 16 inch rim. I have 215/60 16s (P7s) on it at the moment. It used to have 225's on the back but I think that was just too big. People really seemed to like the car at that show and we managed to get a 'best special interest' trophy. Not sure what that really means.

I didn't realize they were 16" Paul. In your paperwork do you have a contact or company name for the people that done the work to the wheels Paul by any chance?.. Thank you PaulFFPL wrote:Yes the wheels have the original centers with a widened and larger diameter 16 inch rim.

Re: 117/2544
The car managed to win one of the major prizes which was nice. I was interested to see some of the comments from my daughters (26yr old) friends as she shared it to her facebook crowd. Apparently I'm a 'badass..'FFPL wrote:If any of you facebookers want to go over and like my post for our virtual cars and coffee here in MA USA I would really appreciate it.

that is a good question. I'm assuming it is good as the young lad is a car guy.Chris_R wrote:Is that something good to be?FFPL wrote:Apparently I'm a 'badass..'
