Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description:

The Jensen Interceptor might just be the ultimate 60’s/70’s bruiser: originally fitted with a 6.3-litre Golden Commando V8 engine and an automatic gearbox called the TorqueFlite, the Interceptor – Interceptor! – is as brutal as it is handsome.

Styled by Carrozzeria Touring of Italy, it was handbuilt in the West Midlands between 1966 and 1976 from steel girders by men with proper names like Bob and Steve and George. Hell, even the rear axle was named after an English city that attracts Russian assassins like flies to honey.

The first to offer anti-lock brakes and traction control courtesy of the wonderfully named Dunlop Maxaret, a system so advanced it was modelled on that used on the English Electric Lightning, among others.

Yup, you could buy a Jensen with the braking system of a fighter plane.
