Seller's comments about 1949' Bristol 400 Ref B 208
This 1949 classic Bristol 400 is finished in stunning red, whilst the interior has been kept to the original cream colour. This car shows little signs of its age with a great drive and comfortable ride. This is a fantastic example of a vintage Bristol car with its imposing looks and timeless style.
