1965 Jensen P66 prototype, one of two made. You're right, a rookie should have gotten this one (I only had to check to be sure of the year - it was recognizable right away). Where are they all?

The P66 was also called the Interceptor (as per the leaflet hand out on the car at the Earls Court Motor Show), ahead of the better-known 1966 Vignale-styled Jensen of the same name.

And wasn't the earlier model, preceding the 541, an Interceptor as well?

Ah yes, a very good point; you are right.  Jensen clearly had a fondness (and ownership) of the Interceptor name!
