The Jensen CV8 and the Jensen 541S

British Classic Jensen Cars

 

Great photographs with lots of information about the Jensen CV8 and a collection of Jensen 541S British classic cars, plus an informative article about the super manual drive 541S by an enthusiast.

The Jensen 541S and CV8 were the last hand built classic cars, or automobiles, built by the Jensen brothers (early 1960s).

Truly high performance sports cars hand built in fiberglass with large straight 6 and V8 engines - very fast!

Many cars in this collection were Jensen Owners Club concourse winners.

This article is full of little known facts about these last two superb fiberglass cars, made by the Jensen brothers, the CV8 and particularly John Neville Cohen's special CV8 MKII built for Hardy Amies as well as the manual drive 541S.
