As I previously stated, the main reason why most of us join car clubs
and buy old cars is because we enjoy each others company and we enjoy
making new friends. However Forums seem to bring out the worst in some
people, who for all I know are as good as gold when you meet them. You
seem extraordinarily confrontational and I don't understand why. My
reaction to anyone who expresses an opinion on anything that interests
me is to use it as a catalyst to do some research and see if I think
they are right. I'd never challenge them unless I was certain of the
facts.

The Automobile is different from other magazines, but don't take my
word for it, buy yourself a copy and read it. Mike Worthington
Williams is or was the Chairman of an International Society of
Vehicle Historians and most of the other contributors are members too.
Their articles are biased toward history and they provide their
sources for verification as is the case with the article on the 400
that you've challenged as you usually do.

I do recommend the article in the Automobile for anyone who's
interested in the early history of the company. It really does
introduce new information of worth. And for those who challenge
everything I say, I recommend asking early Bristol Experts like Andrew
Blow and Geoff Dowdle before you decide to part with three quid! It is
the Sept '09 issue and it's likely that copies are still available.

Hopefully you won't suggest this is spamming for the Automobile.
