Bristol Cars are just in a world of their own.... But what a world! Once saw a Blenheim 3 at a services on the M1....
The figher may not be the last word in styling - but then neither is the Blenheim - Function over form. I actually think the fighter looks alright - many a patriotic engineer has probably burned the midnight oil, pouring over that shape to make it capable of being stable at such speeds.
Anyway, as long as it beats the bloody Hun and shoots down their over-complicated 7 oil cooler contraption, who cares what it looks like?
Lovvin it, not the best looking car in the world, but once i'm sat in it that won't matter.
The best things in life have to be lubricated
What I meant to say was:
I love Bristols :snigger:
It looks like an old TVR 1600M
S60R | GT-R
artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity
I'm just the same...love Bristols, always have. Ever since I saw a pair of them as a young lad.
Okay...just realised how bad that sounds. What I meant was that I did a work experience in a local garage and a local man had 2 old Bristols that he brought in. The dashboards were all wood and looked like they had been nicked straight from a WWII fighter plane...awesome!!
I am pretty sure that it was a pair of these:

"Power output of 525 bhp increases further at very high speed due to aerodynamically induced supercharging effect. Maximum speed approximately 210 mph"?
So the other 500bhp is derived from a RamAir setup? Is it April Fools Day?
Did they run out of bits to finish it?
