There is more information regarding this 411, from an article published in 2012, on the web page below:
Driven: Brabazon Motors 411

That car was the second Bristol 411 Series 5 from May 1975. She was under refurbishment at Patchway when Bristol went into administration. Brabazon finished it off and used it as a test bed before they too went into administration.

I would think perhaps only a handful of these cars were made or should i say up-graded.
The car in Sydney now has Blenheim style wheels now which i think must be 18 inches. Interesting the new owner lives in Surry Hills an inner-city suburb of Sydney, this is where I live as well. Don't have a Bristol though! I have always wanted a Blenheim Series 3 but I could be equally tempted with a 411 Series 6. Happy New Year Alan David

AlanD,
From the information I can gather there seems to be only four 411 6 Series produced . One from S3 , one from S4 and two from S5 , but there could have been more. What about a Britannia . There is one in the North Sydney area that is currently available ? Geoff

The figure of 4 is similar to my understanding.
A Series 5 was completely rebuilt to Blenheim spec (car is in Holland). After building this car Bristol Cars Ltd came up with the idea to build more and called them the 411S6. One was built by BCL before 2011 when 2 others and a 603 were in the pipeline to be rebuilt but the receivers arrived first. Brabazon seem to have finished one of those off and Bristol Cars another though I am not sure where the 603 ended.
