What do you mean by "final nail"? Maserati had a glorious renaissance after the De Tomaso/Biturbo period with the 3200 coupé under the new owner Ferrari/Fiat and has become an established and respected brand again.

Well,they fell off the map over here, and I have not heard a thing about them since they were 'saved' again.

Yep - I love the Maserati 4 door, really nice interior and colours -- I wish Bristol had made something similar.

Maybe they will soon ! - everything is still possible and no fat lady's are singing.

What a lot of fellow Bristol owners don't know is that I manage a "think tank" that provide progressive innovative ideas to a number of industries and we are working hard on commercial strategies for the Frazer Bristol brand.

There is every reason to be exited and optimistic for the future in all areas, for old sagging Bristols and new pert designs. Not just electric hybrid but wind , solar, steam and dark matter magnetic kineteics are all virtualy ready for release.

One of our recovering members ( Paul Wilson ) had a failing electrical goods repair shop only a few years ago and was living at the Filton YMCA until the "think tank" were brought in to help ! He now drives the best Bristol ( arguably ) on the road and is chalenging companies such as Binatone in the electronic note pad markets !

I have offered Bill and Kate the loan of my Beaufighter for the wedding doo tomorrow, so this should help get the brand back into public focus.

We all just need to pull together. ( and be realistic with our comments )

*REVISION*

My colleague has brought it to my attention that Paul was not in fact residing at the Filton YMCA.He was in fact only leading the "Village People" tribute band along with my friend Arthur S -- apologies for any confusion.

All true, I must thank Arthur for his input on dry cell battery technology and the use of smaller valves for the processors without which my 'Duffle Pocket' range of electronic organisers would never have made it to the shelves of PoundStretcher.

I visited Arthur today in the high security wing at Rampton and he is pleased that some of his ideas worked for you and apologised for putting Imac in your hair conditioner bottle !

It's a shame that Bill and Kate resorted to using the traditional coach for the wedding today instead of the Beaufighter I offered, but T. Crook slept in and Arthur couldn't / didn't pass security clearance as the back up driver.

Nevertheless , the germ of the idea is already there for future Royal precessions to all be in electric carriage vehicles -- all provided by Frazer Bristol.

I am swelling with pride ! - I think
