Extra Information | |||
Other comments | The P1800 was manufactured in the Jensen Factory in the UK. In 1964 the production moved to Sweden, where the more powerful 1800S, 2l, was built. Always check the history of the vehicle to ensure that there have been no modifications to the running gear. Hubs/splines, spinners and nuts remain the same, unless noted otherwise, regardless of which wheel is fitted. We also stock wire wheel maintenance accessories such as our Cleaning Kit (Refills available), Cleaning Brush, Degreaser and Tyre Foam.
