Default Fair Comparisons

Hi Paul, undoubtedly the lack of an in house engine is an impediment for many car enthusiasts, However you would have expected a bigger following for the 6 cyl engines on that basis, especially as it was so good. If you look at the value of other marques using the Bristol engine they are currently more expensive by some margin.

In part this could be because of their racing association, which again leads back to me poster boy theory of demand. It all comes back to publicity and image in the end.

Paul
