The Jensen Interceptor appears decorated in an attractive metallic light blue with cream interior, tan and silver steering wheel and black/tan dashboard/instrument panel. A mass of silver trim to the exterior looks great against the body colour and note too, the replica Jensen badge faithfully reproduced in red and silver on the bonnet, not to mention the signature Jensen wrap-around rear window.

The new design for the Interceptor was commissioned by Jensen from Touring in Milan, however Touring were not in a position to manufacture the vehicle and Jensen approached Vignale in Turin to create the first 50 or so vehicles before transferring production to West Bromwich. Jensen sent a C-V8 to Turin in March 1966 and the body was removed and a new body and interior installed on the original chassis. The first car, BEA 693C was driven from Turin to West Bromwich in June 1966 and survived into the 1970s.
