Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1974 Jensen Interceptor III is a mechanically strong classic with a rebuilt engine and recent maintenance, including a new carburetor and refurbished braking system. While the exterior boasts well-maintained metallic blue paint and good chromework, the interior needs some cosmetic attention, and there are a few mechanical issues to address, such as the non-functional air conditioning and a suspension knock.
Condition
6
The car has had bodywork restoration. The metallic blue paintwork still looks good. The interior needs a bit of renovation. Air-conditioning system and central door locking, neither of which work. There is a knock from the nearside front suspension. There is a small amount of structural corrosion on the front valance. Side lamps dim, main beam intermittent, horn tone incorrect, nearside rear handbrake reading low.

Description
‘GFM 849N’ is a rather nice Jensen Interceptor III from 1974.
Its first owner was completely on brand being a steel stockholder from the Black Country who bought it from Wilmslow Jensen, the dealer that seems to have sold the bulk of that year’s production.
The seller grew up not far from the Jensen factory, and we suspect his desire to own an Interceptor has been a lifelong affair – and he eventually found this absolute gem.
Rebuilt in the nineties when it was repainted in its current hue, it stayed with the Devon hotelier who commissioned the work until 2022, at which point it moved into our seller’s hands via a classic car dealer.
Mechanically fettled at great expense only recently, the seller is a man who understands the romance of owning a classic and the importance of maintaining a car’s provenance; while he insists his cars are ‘on the button’ mechanically, he loves the hard-won patina they develop.
If that sounds like you, then you can call off the search and come along to...
