Good Peter, glad we were able to track it down. The engine and much of the running gear was based mainly on the BMW 328 and this was due to their connection with Frazer Nash through HJ Aldington (a Director of BAC). It is therefore kind of neat that Bristol have now been taken over by Frazer Nash.
I understand where you are coming from Steve, I don't like the 412 much either. But some of the early cars are really beautiful imho and the Series VI are fantastic, but horrendously expensive!
I found this on a model site whilst looking for more photos...
