Jensen Interceptor wheel hub center badges


A similar Jensen Interceptor,having a Chrysler 6.3ltr V8 petrol engine.

The Interceptor is a brilliant combination of massive American V8 power and sharp Italian styling, incorporating a glass hatchback. In its day, the Interceptor cost more than the equivalent Aston Martin and was twice the price of a Jaguar E-Type. For their money, buyers got a very luxurious, fast car - and, if they'd ordered the FF, a technical tour de force, as this model had four-wheel drive and ABS brakes. That level of complexity means that a Jensen in need of repair can be a financial liability, which is worth remembering if you're considering buying one. Fuel consumption is alarmingly high, but not surprising considering the size of the engine, which comes in 6.3- and 7.2-litre capacities. Expect an average of 12-13 mpg. The Interceptor isn't for everyone - some consider it a bit flash - but if you want to make a big impression in something rare and beautiful, there is no better classic.




These are new,as packed when Jensen UK posted them out to Cape Town,intended for a 1971 Mk 2 model,supplied from Jensen themselves,they were never fitted and may also suit another model? probably now ultra rare as new items,they are a set and for sale.

Well it took a little time but they were sold this week!  I had sent them to their owner in the UK, Paul contacted me from Australia, I put the two together, a deal was done on the pricing and now Paul has his badges.

This came in from Paul,

Thanks for the help Roy with the wheel medallions, keep up the good work on the site.


cheers,

Paul
