Nice little video highlighting a couple of vehicles with an interesting link.
The Jensen interceptor and the Vw syncro share a piece of technology dating back to the sixties that make the syncro, well, a syncro.
The Jensen intercepter FF ( standing for Formula Ferguson) was a early 4WD road car credited as being one of the first to use a viscous coupling to sort out power distribution between the front and rear axles automatically without driver intervention.
Although the Jensen shown isn’t an FF it’s still worth watching the first bit.. Or just skip to the Syncro at around 11 minutes in.

White panel van.
We loved this van, shame to see it go.
Blast from the past
Who remembers this then? September 1992 and Bernard Newbury’s shop van. It was pretty unusual in those days to see a T3 featured in a magazine, especially an aircooled magazine!
Simple Kombi from Poland looks just right
Nice simple van, wheels and lowered, just looks really well!
Only the “big bumper” type front spoiler and colour coded wheels and roof and off you go, damn you Polish for having such good taste! Keep it simple.
