Bristol 400 Wanted

[GREG]

I could only make you aware of cars for sale in Europe. One or two recently that would seem to suit you apart from being in Europe.

The only other option I can think of is to buy through an agent or Bristol Cars, and let them sort the paperwork. BCL have experience of selling quite a few second hand Bristols to the USA.

Cars travel backwards and forward between Europe and the USA quite often. It can't be that difficult !

Recent prices of £4500 to £8000 for 408's in need of restoration and similar for a couple of 410's. Good quality V8's all seem to be £30 k plus and rising. I know that my old 408 is for sale due to the owner relocating. I would guess around £35k ( Almost perfect ).

You say extensive search / research, but have you put your requirements to Bristol Cars and Andrew Blow ? Or even the new restoration company in Bristol.

After the 200 or so cars you say that you have owned , including numerous Aston's and a Jaguar XK 120, it's about time that you had a decent car on the drive ! :-)

Marcus had a fairly difficult quest but yours should be relatively easy. I wish you good luck and I will follow your search with interest.
