Bristol is possibly the most British of the British marques, the company is almost certainly the most eccentric car maker in the world and despite this, or maybe because of it, they were in business from 1945 until 2011. Last year they were put into administration before being purchased by Kamkorp Group, a company that also owns Frazer-Nash and although their future is unclear at the moment, I have a hard time imagining that the brand will ever disappear.
This car is the 1968 Bristol 410, it’s currently for sale via Bristol Cars and they list the car’s first owner as the Earl of Enniskillen who bought it new in ’68.
This particular 410 has been thoroughly restored and detailed by Bristol and is now sitting in the showroom with a £54,500 price tag, that’s not bad for a car that Bristol themselves say is the best 410 to have appeared on the market in some time.
Ben has had his work featured on CNN, Popular Mechanics, Smithsonian Magazine, Road & Track Magazine, the official Pinterest blog, the official eBay Motors blog, BuzzFeed, and many more.
Silodrome was founded by Ben back in 2010, in the years since the site has grown to become a world leader in the alternative and vintage motoring sector, with millions of readers around the world and many hundreds of thousands of followers on social media.
Editor’s Note: For the first time in Silodrome’s 10 year history we’re publishing the Top Cars list for a year in early January of the following year. The reason for this is that last year we unfairly missed a car from the list because it went viral after we published the Top 10 in late December – so from now on we’ll do the Top Cars and Top Motorcycles lists in early January.
