A Bristol is a fine and eccentric car to own. I would love one but they are galactically expensive to keep in decent nick. There is a specialist in Wiltshire who has a good reputation and who has  what looks to be a very nice 411 up at about £70k (https://www.sljhackett.co.uk/cars/bristol-411-wr.htm). Is it really worth 70k? Not in my opinion but I suspect that's where our eBay advertiser got his "worth" value from.  

The 411 is quite a looker but while engine and transmission parts are pretty straightforward and quite easy to obtain, everything else isn't.

Thanks for all the positive feedback on my first post. After 12 months of watching.... I think I’m understanding more about the “AS” life choices/addiction 

Think we’ve had this one before, but months ago.
Now I have three motors, no space, and absolutely no use for this whatsoever, other than for 2 weeks each summer on a European road trip..... which won’t be happening this year....... (so again absolutely no use!) and yet.... I’ve had to UHU my arm to the kitchen table, so I don’t click to bid on it! 
Is this what happens after prolonged exposure to AS ? If so, what’s the cure?

This is my old one that i spent an age welding/tidying up only to find the gearbox was hatefully notchey when warmed up and so i bailed out and sold it to this chap in 2018 for £650.

He was a bit of a Saab licker who had access to a good gearbox,just a shame the paint won't hold a shine for longer than a couple of weeks.

I'm sorry, but what a moron this guy is, could sell it for about £1500 instead of banger racing it:

I don't understand what goes on inside the mind of people like this.

Not a whole lot judging the spelling of "peace's". Dollys are shit at bangering anyway, they have no structure behind the C pillar and the front's aren't much tougher.

Somebody needs to rescue this before the ZTEC mob ruin it irreparably.

Yes there's a cure. Unstick your arm and buy it, it's the only way.

You missed the best bit (for those of us in the Northern hemisphere - or maybe just me!).  Longitudinal E-series...
