Bristol BULLET signifies the re-birth of the brand with a design and character respecting the company’s rich British heritage – in aviation, commercial and luxury automotive – delivered with a contemporary approach to performance and comfort. The Bristol Bullet Is a British Speedster With a 400HP V8 and a Tiny Windshield. The bonded aluminium chassis features Multimatic coil-over suspension, while the brakes are supplied by AP Racing.

For a start, there are a lot of aeronautical cues, which echo the long trail of excellence in this industry that rather puts Bristol’s car-building endeavours in the shade. With 400 horsepower in the speedster at first and then coupe and hybrid versions to follow soon after this goes into production next year, the Bullet seems like a product worth taking a note of while we celebrate the company's 70th anniversary. For “the Bullett” was the fond nickname given to the Bristol Scout, the First World War plane that was so capable the MoD ordered 400 of them. We've been for a ride in the car too and you can read all about it below.

Bristol Bullet to be precursor of electrified models It’s quick, of course, though our mile-long course hardly proves it. It is powered by a naturally aspirated engine of 4.8 litre capacity. At the launch of Bristol’s big return to market, we were able to take a short passenger ride in the Bullet with Bristol’s Noamaan Siddiqi in the driver’s seat. The car’s body is hand-built in Chichester, England. The powertrain and running gear is manufactured by BMW and “finished” by Bristol. Pricing starts from about $328,230 and deliveries are due to start in 2017. And so, fast forward 70 years, and we have ourselves a £250,000 speedster with a name taken from a plane, and an ongoing partnership with BMW to provide that 4.8-litre V8, 370bhp engine (as well as the indicator stalk, which rather jars in the bespoke cabin) which Bristol then “finish” to their own tastes. Bristol has plans beyond the Bullet, too. This unique speedster sets the tone for the future of Bristol Cars – with a focus on luxury, performance and elegance, it really is the ultimate driver’s car. Bristol Cars are introducing their first creation since 2003, an all-new 70th Anniversary model – the magnificently cool Bristol Bullet.
