Am I mad for wanting a Bristol Fighter T?
Simple question - Answers of hell yes and I'd vote no but we don't have PC access in the secure wing are
expected.....
If you pay peanuts...

I want one. No, I lie I want £250K to spend on cars. Then I would not have one. I would have:
Audi R8 V10
Audi RS4
MAC 1 Zx14 turbo
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

EDIT: The 'T' is £350k! and 1014 bhp! and mad like only freds-in-sheds can do mad...

Not mad to want one, but you would be mad if you bought one.

Nice engine. Shame about the bodywork!!! Seriously ugly.... Absolutely hate those headlights and the rear end looks too bulbous.

As with all Bristol's since the very start, they have an appeal all of their own, and to a Bristol purchaser, £250k is NOT an issue!!
In some ways its a bit like buying a Morgan, bonkers, but very British and there is no equal in their niche!
I'd have one if £250k was no object.
Remember that one day, Bristol and Morgan will be the only profitable car manufacturers in the world! The mumbo jumbo spouted in the recent BMW tv ads
is dead right, even if BMW fail spectacularly to live up to their own claims. One day we will all be using public transport, and the only people using
cars will be the ones with enough cash not to give a crap, and they'll drive morgans and bristols..........
or maybe that's just my persepctive!
