Jensen Interceptor FF
One of the best British Gran Turismo cars was the Jensen Interceptor. With Italian styling by Vignale, massive size, and powerful Chrysler 383 or 440 V8 engine in front, this four-seat coupe was one of the fastest and most comfortable cars for crossing continents in the late ’60s and early ’70s (via Classic and Sports Car).
All Interceptors feature Chrysler’s engine, but the best and very influential version was the Interceptor FF. The latter part of the name comes from Ferguson Formula. Meaning that this model has an all-wheel drive and an early form of ABS brakes. In 1966, this was space-age technology. The power was sourced from 383 V8, although there were coupe prototypes with the 426 Hemi. The Interceptor FF was too expensive and Jensen only managed to sell 320 copies. However, regular Interceptors in a coupe and convertible form were much more successful and over 6,400 left the factory until 1976.
