The re-imagined Bristol reminded me more of a re-imagined AC Cobra.


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Says they are using BMW V8's, but the twin turbo variety..

I hope they have better luck than this:





Keeping a light weight car under control with all that power is not going to be easy.

that's from 2009, so it'll be even harder to keep the new car under control.

Just reading there has been a serious RTA on the London to Brighton run involving a 1902 Mercedes.

A few years ago on the A 14 in monsoon rain, a couple of posh cars came past at loony speed. I recall that one was an Aston.
Within a couple of miles we caught them up. Both smashed at both ends. One into the central barrier, one facing the wrong way on the hard shoulder.
