Bristol 6-cylinder Cars The Bristol Aircraft Company and AFN Ltd entered into a ventual to produce the Frazer-Nash Bristol in the postwar years. Based on BMW 326 chassis, BMW 327 body and BMW 328 engine, the car benefitted from the 1,971cc 6-cylinder BMW engine and its designer Fritz Fiedler both of whom were 'liberated' from post-war Germany by the Aldington brothers of AFN Ltd. AFN and Bristol went separate ways and so the product was launched as the 'Bristol 2-litre' and was to be known as the Bristol 400. Bristol still did business with AFN Ltd and supplied them with Bristol 2-litre engines for Frazer-Nash and also AC Cars. Although slight improvements were made to the six-cylinder engine, its biggest upgrade came in 1958 when the engine was enlarged to 2,216cc which produced more torque but not more power. |
