If there had not been a lack of financial funds for serious investments at Bristol Cars already in the nineties or earlier Mr. Crook would probably not have called in Toby Silverston and Tavistock in the first place. So I don't see any perspective for him buying back the company. It would just be as underfinanced as before.
I think the products, i.e. the cars are very good and above all unique and there is no doubt there has been a renewed interest in the marque over the last few years. The idea of rebuilding older cars was also fine, Jensen is doing the same now. But probably Mr. Lewis was losing patience, as I think he has not yet got much back from his investments into Bristol Cars.
Or it is more a personal matter between Mr. Lewis and Mr. Silverton. Such things are difficult to judge from outside.

Regards,
Markus
