To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION WITHOUT RESERVE at RM Sothebys' Paris event, 4 - 5 February 2025.

  • Believed to be one of just 267 Jensen Interceptor Convertibles produced
  • Powered by a 330 horsepower, carburettor-fed 7.2-litre V-8 engine that sends power to the rear wheels via a three-speed ‘Torqueflite’ automatic transmission
  • Delivered new to the United States, then finished in black over black trim

By its third iteration, the Jensen Interceptor was powered by a colossal 7.2-litre Chrysler-derived V-8 engine producing 330 horsepower. Launched in 1974, primarily for the North American market, a modest 267 Interceptor Convertibles were ever made, making them a rare find indeed.

One of the final Interceptors to roll off of the production line, this example is believed to have left the factory painted black. Though it is not known when it was restored, it now wears an attractive metallic blue hue over its factory-correct black leather-trimmed interior.

Noted to have originally been delivered new to the United States, this left-hand-drive example is fitted with a three-speed Torqueflite automatic transmission, and features air conditioning, a power-folding convertible roof, a louvred bonnet, burr walnut trims, a later Kenwood radio CD player head unit, and an interior plaque dedicated to its original owner.

It is also accompanied by various registration documents showing time spent in the Netherlands, and later France, and is now offered for sale as part of the The Curated Collection. A rare find on the market, this Interceptor Convertible would make a wonderful addition to any classic collection, and will be sought after by marque collectors.
