 good news! - Ian (Cape Town)
I've always been a fan of Bristols.
(Fnaar, fnaar!)
One for the 'very rare sightings' list, though.
I saw a few near the Chiswick roundabout - possibly cos the service department is near there, and one was always parked on the slip road by Richmond Bridge, but apart from that, can't recall seeing one on the road.

One of my customers had a Bristol, he never let me tune it though (funny that!) although I did repair the speedo on his Mini (and what a firkin job that was)

I don't fancy the Bullet at all at all, but I wouldn't turn my nose up at one of these: www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C693177

It looks almost like an older twin! - The 405 is nice looking too, but given the choice I know which I prefer!! ;-)

250 grand for a motor - phew!, I could get a nice villa in Cyprus for that sort of money AND have a enuff left over for a new SUV.

You're not wrong though, they are a tad similar, amazing really con-sidering the 405 goes back to 1956!
