Built as a prototype Grand Tourer with styling by Eric Neale a P66 was exhibited at the 1965 London Motorshow n a break from their recent tradition of using glassfibre, he used an aluminium body on a steel platform and tube chassis. The optional engine continued to be a 6.2 litre Chrysler V8 similar to that used in the contemporary CV8, or a 4.5 litre in stock form. The car was priced at £ 2,200 in the UK vastly under cutting the companies £ 3,00 CV8 model and if production had been taken up would probably have been renamed as an Interceptor. Two examples were built a Convertibla and this hardtop version. The company founders, Richard and Alan Jensen, favoured putting the model into production. The Norcros group had been controlling the company for some years and preferred to adopt an Italian styled body, a view shared by Managing Director Brian Owen and Deputy Chief Engineer Kevin Beattie. They approached Touring of Milan who produced a rival design that was put into production by Vignale as the Interceptor.

The convertible P66 was soon broken up, the parts and the Hardtop sold on it won Car of the Show in the 'Classic & Sports Car' Club Awards at the 2015 Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show
