Unhappy postings

I have had a classic restoration of a 412 from Bristol Cars and I cannot speak highly enough of their work and the value for money BCL deliver. Almost every item on the car was replaced during the restoration. At a fixed price. Very few companies I know would offer that.

It is worth noting that a series 6 411 is a completely rebuilt car to Blenheim mechanical spec which uses new/modern components not restored parts. A restored original car, even with a new engine, is a classic restoration car. There is about 70,000 in the difference between the two!

If you are looking at an engine upgrade to your car I can again recommend BCL who have designed and built an engine for my car as a one off. They insisted on modifying my gearbox valve body to get the best out of the engine performance curve, at their own cost. They are more demanding of themselves than I am, and I am nobody's pushover.

The cost wouldn't have covered the cost of a cylinder head on an Aston.

I would discount Eric's 'story' as there is another unspoken side to this from what I gather.
