In October 1953, brothers Richard and Alan Jensen presented the new 541 sports car at the London Motor Show and were thus able to offer one of the first series-produced coupés with a plastic body. The car met high standards and was technically of the highest level, as evidenced by the use of disc brakes, automatic transmission and seat belts as standard during the eight years of production. This driving report portrays a Jensen 541 from 1956 and shows the various versions on historical images and brochures, supplemented by a sound sample.
