SUMMARY
A striking Mkll with an interesting history, the consummate British GT car.
DESCRIPTION
- Built in February of 1971, this Jensen Interceptor is one of just 693 Mkll examples ever produced
- About 15% more powerful than the Mklll's larger 440, due to higher compression, a bigger cam and general absence of government-mandated, power-robbing smog equipment
- A documented 'one owner car' and life-long California resident, it was purchased on 26/11/1971 in Los Angeles, by Mr John "Jack" Spoor Broome, heir to one of the largest California land grants and one of the biggest citrus producers in the country
- Fully documented, the Jensen comes with its original California title (the small one, known as a 'pink slip') issued in 1971, its original first registration, as well as its original owner's handbook including the Mkll supplement and the, seldom seen, original Routine Service Voucher booklet
