Honda S660 Concept Edition announced

Sales of the Honda S660 roadster are about to begin in Japan, so to mark the occasion a special Concept Edition has been created.

Its unique specification includes Star White Pearl paintwork, a Bordeaux red 'roll-top' roof, two-tone door mirror caps and water-repellent coatings for the body and glass.

Inside, the Concept Edition gains a commemorate aluminium plaque, a central dashboard display screen and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Rather oddly the two seats are covered with different shades of grey leather, but they both feature red stitching.

As per the regular S660, power comes from a mid-mounted, three-cylinder, turbocharged, 660 cc petrol engine. It drives the rear wheels via either a six-speed manual gearbox or a continuously variable transmission.

Production of the S660 Concept Edition will be restricted to 660 examples, which seems like an apt number.

Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
