what the auto writers say about the
“
PERFECT AUTO
”
.
S. F. SUNDAY EXAMINER A CHRONICLE - OCTOBER 25, 1970 - by DICK NOLAN “The Perfect Auto — I SUPPOSE that a motor car does make some kind of statement about its owner, however, superficial. The Jensen suggests that the guy is well heeled, imaginative, a touch adventurous but not rash, tasteful, unconventional, and young where it counts.
“That's what the Jensen will say, of course, about the guy who buys one. Not the ink-stained wretch who merely borrows it from the manufacturer and drives it while waiting for the dock to toll midnight."
SPORTS CAR GRAPHIC - JANUARY:
“Yes, reader, take heed. Considering all the five-figure luxury performance cars we have extensively tested, the Jensen is the first one to seem functionally and esthetically worth its tag. Still, at ,500… "To dream the impossible dream .. .”
THE SUNDAY EXPRESS - APRIL 20. 1969 - by ROBERT GLENTON
“A Speedy New British Brave Adventure in Motoring." The Docile. Purring Jensen. “It is a lazy, docile purr of a car. Its great Chrysler engine drowses until you want it. Its very good power steering and its automatic transmission make it one of the easiest, laziest cars in traffic, and yet one gap, one touch of the throttle, and you are two traffic blocks further along, as politely angelic as an unjustly accused choirboy."
"The Jensen looks menacing, for it has splendidly powerful lines.”
LEICESTER GRAPHIC - JUNE. 1970... by CHARLES FOTHERGILL
“One of the nicest perks in the motoring writer’s life is being able to wander off occasionally into the rich pastures of the specialist car makers, sample the riches there — and then return to one's own bread and dripping transport drooling with envy!
“It was just so with the Jensen Interceptor II. An all too-brief, dream-like weekend and so beautifully refined is this car, so carefully thought out from stem to stem, that it will take some time to erase the fear that my own personal transport is, after all, nothing but a noisy fuss box!”
DEVON LIFE - JUNE, 1970... by JOHN WHITELL
“Once in a lifetime a motor correspondent finds a car that will make him sell his house, auction his wife and hock his children just so he could own one. I have just discovered such a car and after driving it nothing is sacred any longer, this is the effect the Jensen had on me, it was love at first sight ‘Throughout my drive the overall silence was most
remarkable, and the V8 power unit is vibrationless, indeed the lasting impression is speed, silence and safety.”
NOTTINGHAM EVENING POST NEWS - APRIL 2, 1969 … by JERRY AMES
"Thoroughbred that gives traveling in grand touring style. Cars for touring in the grand manner have a fascination for all motorists, even when priced beyond their pockets. Moving smoothly and gracefully past other vehicles, with its shapely lines giving a hint of luxury travel to far-off places — that is the Jensen Interceptor.
“Cruising in silence at 100 m.p.h. with plenty of power in hand, is one of the features that makes the Jensen Interceptor such a delightful car to take along fast. Continental roads. Pushed hard, it will run to a maximum of 134 m.p.h. but the superb handling when driven quickly, places this car right in the top bracket among nigh performance saloons.*'
THE DAILY MAIL - OCTOBER 14,1970... by BRIAN GROVES
“JENSEN Interceptor. I have to leave out all but one of the super cars, and I pick the Jensen for my flight of fancy motoring choice. It is to my mind the most attractively styled with that practical opening rear window. Most of all I love its plush intenor, its scintillating performance from a 6276 c.c. Chrysler engine and all the luxurious equipment that you are still discovering long after you first open the door. It really is a flight of fancy."
…. by STERLING MOSS
“For all that, the Jensen Interceptor is a magnificent car. It is extraordinarily responsive to the power of its engine, yet there seems little doubt that the driver is always in command.
“High performance in real comfort and absolute silence is something all too rare in a British car, and it was one of the very few test cars I was sorry to hand back after the test Well done, Jensen!"
MOTOR
“International splendour... superb engine and transmission ... tremendous performance ... comfortable armchair seats... well balanced handling ... Sound British engineering has created one extravagant pack, age that lifts the Interceptor to the top Bracket of our desirable property list. Figures do not convey the absurd ease with which 325 bhp thrusts the big car up 140 mph, nor the imperceptible pause as one gear slips into the other in the uncannily smooth automatic gearbox. Responsive handling... light steering permits astonishingly carefree use of so much power.
