Cool Cars You’ve Never Heard Of – Jensen P66

In another quantum reality, the Jensen Interceptor was never produced.  I know, I know.  The horror.  Pictured above is an intriguing glimpse at what might have been, the Jensen P66 prototype.

The P66 was intended to replace the very unfortunate CV8 (click the link at your own risk).  Only two P66 prototypes were constructed, this one being the sole survivor.  Jensen gave the green light to the Interceptor instead (pictured below), which enjoyed a healthy ten year run (“File:Jensen P66 Prototype 1965 Nottingham JOC International 2009.jpg”). Still, the P66 would have made a nice addition to the Jensen family.  It’s clean, elegant and well-proportioned — all the things the CV8 isn’t (okay, I’ll stop).
