Other day at work ,mate looking thru E bay ,JENSON INTERCEPTOR ,what was the Bond film this car featured in as the passion wagon .
Awaresome engines too ,6.2 litre or 7 litre.
Never in a Bond film.
I didn't thing there was one - are you not thinking of Roger Moore in the Saint? that wasn't an Interceptor either but the Volvo he drove was built by Jensen.
I'm 99% sure there was never an Interceptor in a Bond film.
roger moore as james bond had a jensen made volvo p1800
Astons, Lotus (Loti?), Fords (thank you product placement)
I don't recall a Jenson in a Bond film either.
No, no Jensens....

Although I think there should be 🙂
Must have been the volvo one i had in my mind, or confusing with The saint .
Possibly getting confused with a 1969 Aston Martin DBS Vantage from "On her Majesty's Secret Service." and as used by Roger Moor in the Persuaders.
They do look similar from the front.

Bond Bug?
I saw a Bond Bug in Chingford a couple of weeks ago!

I don't think that pretty young lady was in it though.
Well, even if she was, at best, she was probably not two of those 3
Weren't they Triumph derivative.
I rolled in one whilst hitch hiking on the M1 c 1972. 9 stitches in the head and my first ever night in Northampton (General Hospital). Death traps.
And in a rather circular way, the Bond Bug designer also designed the chopper and in fact the car type thing in that luke skywalker drove / flew in star wars was also designed by the same guy (Ian Ogle, maybe not 'Ian') and built on a Bond Bug frame.
an early bond car, the minicar had a motorcycle engine, unmodified in the front. Most of the engine bay was space
Appearing in The Protectors.

There was a Jensen Interceptor used in one of the Saint series.
Started in a Volvo p1800, then a white xjs v12, and in 89, a blue Jensen.

I had one of the first models. Engine (197cc Villiers) turned with the front wheel, no rear suspension, weighed about 350lbs. Had to carry a pocket full of corks because I kept burning the clutch out on steep hills. Solved the problem by getting a sturdier g/f for pushstarts.
Rolled it. It caught fire. I made quick exit. End of Bond.
It was fun but a right heap of shite.
Double post
Found it then? 😉
Very tenuous Don 😕
Good spot though 😀
Corks??

Yup. Clutch plate had pressed in corks for friction material. Quite common on British motorbikes of the time.

That would be Tom Karen, who also designed the Reliant Scimitar.
I remember some bloke jumping a jensen off a ramp into a pile of cars in some old Noel Edmonds show. As you would expect the front went down like a sack of spuds and it flipped right over.
