Bristol: The Inside Story
Ashley,
I don't think Charles Oxley's book is that bad a read given that he was an owner and enthusiast not a proffessional motoring writer, Setrights book,yes it has errors but few motoring books are totally correct and it doesn't stop copies of his first book changing hands for between £150 to £200 a time and a copy of his latest effort bid to £350 last week at Brightwells !!
I agree about Denis Jenkinson's book and to get another slant on the 401/403 design debate the excellent Touring Superleggera by Carlo Felice Bianchi Anderloni is well worth a look, in it you will see some photo's used in Jenks book.
I also hope Christopher book is a succes and a good read too as I've just put my order in with Amazon.
