An elderly chap (I believe all Bristol owners are known as chaps) came to the factory a couple of months ago for a tour in his 401. Apart from being immensely interested in what we did when I took him around, he showed me his car with great pride. He'd had it many years and it was beautifully patinated.....and he loved it!
Was he the gentleman, whose car had featured in original road-tests, following its' launch?
If so, we had the delight of meeting him at Sherbourne a few years ago.
As for Bristol Cars; my favourite has always been the lovely 405.
