I certainly would not count on this being the case.
We picked up a renewed '79 603 there last October (see photo here
Bristol Cars - Owners and Enthusiasts Forum - browning l's Album: Bristols seen, Owners met - 13-16 October 08), and, from the very first conversation with Toby Silverton before I ever met him in London, throughout the car selection and buying process, and on through the work and pickup process, he made it very clear that no tours were possible. I had no reason nor right to argue the point.
The only interior space we saw was in the room where the completed car awaited us, and a brief trip into an office area to pick up some documents.
Why run the risk of being turned away disappointed, when a simple phone call to 0117 979 9444 will provide you with an answer?
As for the reasons for no tours, that's really Toby's business, isn't it? I don't see where we have the right to question how he runs his business.
