Jeep launches the Cherokee Night Eagle edition

Jeep's latest special edition Cherokee combines a few cosmetic tweaks with some extra specification. Called the Night Eagle, it's based on the existing Longitude Plus trim grade.

Distinguishing features include deep-tint glass, gloss black roof bars, satin grey bodywork elements and a unique tailgate badge. Furthermore, the usual 17” alloy wheels have been upgraded to gloss black 18” five-spoke items.

Inside, the Longitude Plus standard equipment list is augmented by leather upholstery, electrically-adjustable lumber support for the driver and front-seat heating.

Power is provided by a 2.2 litre MultiJet turbo diesel engine which produces 197 bhp (147 kW / 200 PS) with 440 Nm (324 lb/ft) of peak torque. That output is sent to an Active Drive I 4x4 system via a nine-speed automatic transmission.

Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. 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.
