Seller's comments about 1969' Bristol 410
The famous racer and veteran car man, John Bolsterk's road test article of 1969, where he cleverly encapsulates the aura surrounding a Bristol 410, wrote, "I must admit that I have a great affection for hand-built luxury cars and to the man requiring a big, dignified car of very high performance, the Bristol brings a pride of ownership that abundantly justifies its considerable price"; happily nothing in my opinion has changed!
Bristol cars handled the sale of this rather lovely Bristol 410 to its first six keepers with the last taking over the reigns via them in 2003. Pleasingly there's a synopsis of works undertaken by 'Filton' plus other notable specialists too, such as Spencer Lane-Jones and Andrew Blow, who incidentally handled its last but one sale, thus today it continues to present beautifully.
Care and attention has been lavished by the right type of people with the current owners indulging it further, with recent expenditure including new veneers, recovered top-roll, carpets, Webasto overhauled, re-chroming, new radiator and tyres, not forgetting sensible and regular maintenance.
Reliability can be a bane for classic car owners especially when a car is not often driven. One can eliminate any uncertainly with this 410. During 2022, it embarked upon a 6, 000 miles Bristol Club European Tour which went as far east as Turkey, thus removing any doubt as to its credentials and reliability.
The unmarked and gleaming blue paint work contrasts beautifully with the red leather interior and as previously mentioned, the interior is lifted further by new veneers, carpets and a properly functioning sunroof, so a lovely place to be whilst enjoying the effortless performance and its V8 burble !
It would be a pleasure to answer any questions you might have. However, to really appreciate this lovely Bristol, it needs to be seen “in the flesh”, so do please call me directly on +44(0)the details below to arrange a viewing.
