Distinctive sound of a Bristol 2 Litre Engine

There is a quite distinctive sound from the exhaust of a Bristol six cylinder engine.

This distinctive sound can be heard from a Bristol car - miles away.
Nothing else sounds just like a Bristol 2 litre engine in good tune.

So what is it mechanically about the motor that gives it such distinctive resonance?
