Bristol Cars, the post-war British coachbuilder, is set to return and begin work on completing an unfinished supercar project. Reporting says the company’s first task is to finish the existing Fighter project before shifting to new production.
According to multiple reports, Bristol intends to resume operations in time for its 80th anniversary year. The company plans to build five units of the Fighter, described as a gullwing-doored luxury grand tourer. The vehicle is reported to be powered by a V10 engine.
The outlets present the announcement as a planned restart rather than a fully detailed relaunch, with emphasis on the limited run and the specific model—Bristol Fighter—that the company will produce. Aside from the shared focus on the number of cars and the key technical and design descriptors, the reporting largely aligns on the sequence of events: first completing the unfinished supercar, then producing the five Fighter models for the milestone anniversary.
