Anyone who put that into production might need a big legal budget ready to fight off the lawsuits from Jaguar. It looks exactly like the front of an E-Type attached to the back of an F-Type.
The lawsuit would more likly have come from Bristol judging by the similarities between the Growler and the Fighter!

The front reminds me of the old Volvo P1800.

I think it would look a whole lot better with a full size windscreen.

I suspect that the kind of person who would buy this would be delighted by the horror of fans of German appliances.

The wheels are too big, the tires to slim, and I hope the guy riding it in the film is a dwarf, because otherwise, the waistlien is WAY to high. He can barely see over the dashboard.

Apart from that, I like it. Took me three or four times, but the car definitely grows on you. The top line leading into the rear fins could have a little swing (as opposed to being like cut off with a ruler),.....

Come on guys, Bristol was laways a bit of a brainy Brand. You have to be into into to like their cars. This one is no exception.

Now lets see, when is my mortgage paid off? I could re-mortgage the house....

Underwhelmed, to say the least ...

Hope the new TVR isn't as much of a let down .

Looks mediocre- unlike the sensationally curvy 401 I was looking at today.It must have looked like a spaceship in period- no wing mirrors and flush door handles to improve the drag and a triple Solex (I think ) six- lovely stuff.

It looks way better in the video. Definitely a Cobra resemblance.

Reeks a bit of the Morgan, front lights not doing it any favours.

Sorry to drag up an old thread, I really like it but then I've seen it a few times in the flesh. It also sounds incredible. I doubt I'll ever be able to afford one but then I can't afford a Porsche either......!
