Toyota introduces the GT86 Orange Edition

Over the coming months, Toyota will be launching a collection of GT86 special editions under the 'Club Series' banner. The first, named Orange Edition after its striking Solar Orange paintwork, is available now.

Some visual contrast is provided by an Anthracite finish for the 17” ten-spoke alloy wheels, plus the door mirror caps and rear spoiler are black instead of being body-coloured.

Apart from the addition of orange stitching, the interior specification replicates that of the existing Pro trim grade. Therefore, the seats boast black leather and Alcantara upholstery, while the door cards and dashboard panel are covered in black suede. Front-seat heating, cruise control and the Toyota Touch 2 multimedia system are also fitted as standard.

Despite a lack of extra equipment, the Orange Edition costs £795 more than the Pro version. Such a high premium for a different colour scheme is hard to fathom.

‘New’ Jensen Interceptor

There’s something very retro-chic about using a classic car as a daily driver, but it’s an activity that comes with the permanent risk that aged mechanicals might expire at any time. 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.
