Smudge Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Spotted at lunch time today. Absolutely mint condition. It is a Bristol isn't it? Oh, and a packet of cheesy poofs & smelly fingers to the person who can guess where I spotted it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v15ben Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Looks very much like one to me. Spotted on a roundabout - do I win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N3WOB Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Is it a Brisol, thought it looked a bit like an Alvis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Only reason I thought it was is the compartments behind the front wheels (admittedly not easy to see on that pic). At least thats what it looked like, and they're only on Bristols, aren't they? Sounded bloody good what ever it was. Bristol 406: Though the images of a 406 off of Google don't look quite the same.

N3WOB Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 You're knowledge is way ahead of mine, think the Alvis is an older car on reflection Trust you managed to get past the Suzuki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOSE Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Frankie......could this be the same Bristol we passed on the M5 on Sunday? Although I didnt really take much notice of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuntimeFrankie Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Nope, cos the one we saw was this one.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSE Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Ahhh yes.... Magnificant machines. However........I have never seen a Bristol, either parked up, at a car show or even at a motor museum that had well maintained leather seats. Every example I have seen has had cracked leather. They used a lot of red and blue n those cars and its possibly the worst colour (apart from cream/champagne) at showing up the age tof the leather. Shame really!
