The facts
Why choose the Jensen Interceptor Mk3 V8?
By 1974, the Jensen Interceptor Mk3 represented the pinnacle of British grand touring design — a hand-built masterpiece combining Italian elegance, American muscle, and British craftsmanship. Styled by Carrozzeria Touring of Milan and powered by a mighty Chrysler 7.2-litre V8, the Interceptor offered effortless performance and unmatched presence on the open road.
Registered 16th April 1974, this fine example has covered just 65,000 miles from new and has been enjoyed by seven careful owners. The Mk3 benefited from subtle refinements over earlier models, including improved trim, suspension, and braking — all enhancing its reputation as one of the most sophisticated GTs of its era.
This particular car has been thoroughly maintained and mechanically refreshed, ensuring it performs as beautifully as it looks.
Beautifully built, effortlessly powerful, and unmistakably stylish — the Jensen Interceptor Mk3 remains one of the most charismatic British GTs ever made.
Recent maintenance includes:
- New front shock absorbers
- New ball joints
- Rebuilt front disc brakes
- New sump gasket
- Fresh coolant and fully serviced cooling system
- Fresh differential oil
- All grease ports re-greased
- Brand new tyres
Supplied with a current MOT valid until 26/03/2026, it’s fully road-ready and mechanically sound.
A true symbol of 1970s style and power, the Interceptor Mk3 remains one of the most desirable British grand tourers ever made — combining the soul of a supercar with the comfort of a luxury cruiser.

The years of manufacture are shown from the time each model was produced in the final prototype. However, it’s helpful to remember that a small number of cars fall outside of the production dates shown because they are pre-prototype releases, trials or realised ideas. The numbers of each model produced are best estimates, not exact figures. Even with these exceptions, all Pilgrim’s models have passed the necessary tests of their day and are fully road-legal, low-volume-production motor vehicles.
