They were a typical British company, unable and/or unwilling to move with the times.
Here's a car they designed in 1976:
Bristol Type 603 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
And not really developed or updated and still being "sold" today (if anyone wants a very expensive 1976 car).
Here's a Kia from a few years ago, it looks and is tulip
And here's some new Kia cars:
And here's a Kia design for tomorrow:
and another
So, Bristol, expensive, ugly cars from the 1970's being sold selectively to very rich, blind/stupid people.
Other car manufacturers (like Kia) are booming, improving designs, quality, technology and manufacturing techniques.
I'd rather have a Kia.Comment

We need more bankers, more printed money, more lending, more debt, buy a house, sell it a 2x price a year later.
That's the future. We should scrap maths, science at school and teach children how to buy and sell houses and how to short a stock via a CFD.Comment

As for switching off the light... everyone's gone already and the light is on a timer to give the impression that someone's still here.Comment
