Those CN72s are monstrously expensive.

Given that a lot of Bristols are still in regular use as "normal" cars, I wonder how they perform at modern speeds in modern conditions. I have (discontinued) P4000 SuperTourings in 215/70R15 on mine - contemporary construction, compound etc. and they are pretty hopeless in terms of traction and braking, particularly in the wet. Not sure how a forty-plus-year-old design compares.
