I'm sure somebody can name the car, but can you name the landmark we came to visit nearby?

That must be the picturesque Gold Hill - where the old Hovis TV advert was filmed ...

Oh, & by the way the cars' a Bristol 603

Spot on Andy. It is a series 1 and should have a 1100 or 1300cc Renault engine I think but this one has a 1600 (or enlarged) 1750cc Renault R16TX motor. It was in lovely condition. Never seen one before.

They were competitors to the later A110's &, like them, invariably had their engines uprated or replaced with bigger capacity/more powerful Renault engines.

Rare to see them outside of France.
