Agreed, but if you go the tin top route that would look good.

From other angles that car the 'Aeromin'? Looks superb and an interesting article on it in Mog magazine about three years ago.

This showed up on Richard's (+8Rich) post in another section .... as only three were reputedly made with this body by an outside coachworks I would say it deserves to be among the specials as well.

How about the Bristol Bullet? I believe they were fashioned around a CX chassis although not absolutely sure about that. in any event, there could be an opportunity for Morgan or their owners to resurrect Bristol from the ashes and continue to develop the Gran Tourismo leanings of Bristol in their heyday - the Bullet might be a good place to start and their would be a nice circular irony in having BMW engines in a new Bristol

It was actually an Aero 8 chassis and I’m told quite similar to a Series 1. I also liked the design and having had a Bristol in the past could have been interested, until I heard the price (circa £250K) and the fact that it had no rain gear of any sort, not even a hardtop, that ruled it totally out of contention. 🙁
