    Anyone ever driven a Jensen FF?

    Just curious to see if anyone has driven a Jensen FF? If so, how did the 4wd feel and how did it compare to the Quattro system?

    Never been in one but i met a guy who was mid restoration. He was working in an old corrugated steel shed and had the exhaust manifolds on but no exhaust. I can’t even begin to explain how f****g loud that thing was, people must have heard it miles away

      The Jensen Ferguson Formula 4 x 4 used an entirely different system than say, the Iltis, the grandfather of the quattro, or the quattro:

        Not driven an FF, but took a Mk1 Interceptor for a test drive a few years ago. However good the 4wd system was it had a complete barge of a car to over come. The thing weighed about as much as an oil tanker, and despite 6.3 litres of American muscle doing it's best to empty the world's oil reserves it was sooooooo sloooowwwww.

        Shattered my illusions of becoming an international man of mystery and I bought something else.
