JENSEN SALOON

Post-war difficulties have prevented the production of Jensen cars on more than a limited scale, but this has not affected the popularity or performance of this excellent four-door Saloon.

There is seating for a maximum of six persons and ample luggage space, as will be seen in the photographs reproduced below.

The Jensen four-door Convertible version of this model has a hand-operated head, but is otherwise to the same specification as the Saloon. It is now made only to special order.
