If this isn’t one of the most beautiful cars then we don’t know what is. Finished in a beautiful shade of red with a grey roof and camel leather, this 1960 Jensen 541S is definitely stealing the show at The Hangar. It is, of course, Peony Red.

Peony Red is one of the Jensen 541’s that Bridge Classic Cars has had the honour of restoring down to the smallest detail for its very special owner. There isn’t an angle where this car doesn’t look absolutely phenomenal. This afternoon it was transported from our workshop in Pettistree inside the enclosed vehicle transporter to our classic car storage facility, The Hangar. This is where Peony Red will be stored and cared for over the winter months by our in-house restoration technicians until the weather becomes more suited and the temperatures are perfect for driving such an incredible sports car.

While The Hangar was being readied for Peony’s arrival, Nick managed to grab some photos of this truly unique and one-off Grand Tourer in the sun while he could. These photos, couldn’t even do justice to just how incredible this car looks and sounds in the flesh.
