New Jensen Interceptor set for 2014 debut



THE biggest British sports car company you've never heard of is set to bring the iconic Jensen Interceptor back to life.

You might not be familiar with Coventry-based CPP Global Holdings but it's already linked to some of motoring's best known names and is now vowing to reinvent the Sixties supercar for the 21st century.

Brendan O’Toole, founder and co-owner of CPP, said:

"I started my career by restoring bodies and components for classic British sports cars, so for CPP to take the lead role in reviving this iconic brand is very exciting for the business, and for me personally.

"The Jensen design team has respected and honoured the great heritage and attributes of the original Interceptor, while injecting a contemporary edge and advanced technologies that will ensure it appeals to the passionate, discerning motoring enthusiast of today."

CPP might not be immediately familiar to most car enthusiasts but the brands it owns - off-roader specialists Bowler and Dutch supercar makers Spyker - will be, while the Browns Lane factory the firm operates on was for years synonymous with Jaguar as that company's main production site.
