Jensen FF Mk1

The Jensen FF was a landmark: the first production car with four-wheel drive and Dunlop Maxaret anti-lock brakes, wrapped in Vignale-built bodywork and powered by Chrysler's 6.3-litre V8. This Mk1 was first registered on 1 August 1969, making it one of the last of its type built.

It is finished in black, one of only two FFs originally painted that colour and, according to Jensen specialists, the only survivor. The car has the original leather interior, conserved rather than retrimmed, along with its original steering wheel and 8-track stereo. It sits on its original wheels with new period-correct Pirelli tyres and has period Cibie fog lamps.

Car-Iconics says it spent three years restoring the car, reusing and refurbishing original parts where possible. The bodywork was stripped to bare metal and repaired by hand, and the brightwork was re-chromed. The engine and gearbox have been rebuilt, and the car has had a broad mechanical recommissioning. It has covered 52,548 miles, has had five owners and comes with a photographic record and a file of invoices.
