Buyer’s notes

About the Bristol 411

The 411 was Bristol’s grand tourer from 1969 to 1976. It moved to Chrysler’s big-block 6,277 cc V8, later enlarged to 6.6 litres, with a three-speed TorqueFlite automatic and an aluminium body on a box-section steel chassis. It ran through five series, from the Series 1 to the Series 5.

What moves the price

  • Series: early and late cars differ in engine size, styling and equipment.
  • Body: the condition of the aluminium panels, which are expensive to repair.
  • History and originality: many 411s have been upgraded for everyday use, so know what has been changed.

Before you buy, check

  • The aluminium body, especially where it meets the steel frame, as the two metals react and corrode.
  • The box-section steel chassis and the rear suspension mountings, inspected thoroughly on a ramp.
  • An inspection by a Bristol specialist, with records of engine and gearbox work.
