I thought I had seen just about every car and kit car there was in the uk, but I was watching a caravan programme on the telly tonight and saw this.
I've no idea what it is
anyone know? - sorry about the cr*p photo - I photographed the telly
Cheers

Looks like a Bristol (although I had to look it up, 'cos I couldn't remember having seen one) but more like a 409 than a 406?
Edit: Just looked at your pic - doesn't the number plate shows "409 something"..?

That's miles too long - look at the wheelbase in the first pic - pay special attential to the space between front wheel and door.
No idea what it is, though :O
Really looked like a Perless to me.
Even the bonnet badge looks like Peerless.
Just the grille looks wrong and even that does not seem to fit properly?
Someones customising?
The bonnets not quite right but i stick with the badge

I'm now thinking Gilbern GT with a prototype front end on it
Thoughts?

gilbern
and the grill is different.
The Gilbern does look very similar. It is ugly enough, but too small, for a Bristol - and I don't think Bristol owners do caravans. It would have to be a pretty solid/heavy kit/component car to tow a caravan I would have thought.

It looks reminiscent of some of the early-mid 1960s Italian GTs, but quite a lot shorter.
I wouldn't be worried what the car is I would be more worried why you are watching a caravan program
