About this car

The Beaufighter was Bristol's turbocharged take on the Chrysler-V8-powered Britannia line, and the maker has said that fewer than 20 were built. This 1984 car is finished in red with black leather and a dark wood veneer dashboard.

It has been modified from standard. The turbocharger has been removed and a sports inlet manifold and sports exhaust manifold fitted to make up for the lost power. The owner reports better fuel economy, and a four-speed lock-up automatic gearbox has been added.

The car has been maintained by a Bristol enthusiast owner. It is currently registered in Holland and would need to be re-registered on British plates for UK use. No mileage is given on the page.
