Hey, hang on, I have two of these — you will be having a go at my oil-fired Aga next!

(For the record, my excuses would be that there is not digital radio in Orkney and the only gas passes by in a huge pipe on its way doon sooth!)

I recently bought a Roberts too. I was surprised that they are still in business.

They are good quality and simple like a Bristol -- not sure about the gull wing version .:-)

Roberts is not exotic at all. They are the market leader for portable radios in the UK. And they aren't expensive either.
I'd rather compare Bristol Cars to something like Audio Note UK.
