Jensen
1999, October:
A prototype Jensen S-V8 is shown at the London Motor Show.
If it goes into production it will compete with sports cars such as
TVR.
(The Jensen name is owned by `Creative Group'
automotive engineering and design consultants.)
1966:
The Jensen FF with the
race-proven
Formula Ferguson four wheel drive system, and
Dunlop Maxaret anti-lock brakes,
sets new safety standards for road cars.
It was in production until 1971.
The diagram (right) shows the principles
of the 4WD system and transfer case;
it is schematic only, and not to scale!
Torque is split front to rear 37:63,
unless wheel-spin occurs.
