Sharing its name with a Bristol biplane from the 1920s, the new Bullet is a nod to the past wrapped in sexy carbon fiber.
Following its dynamic debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Bristol Bullet is set to be revealed next Monday, but thanks to these leaked images, you now get to spend the entire weekend thinking about Britain’s latest V8 sports car.

What else is there to know? As we mentioned earlier, the Bullet Speedster hides a 4.8-liter BMW V8 in its nose, while the body panels are made of carbon fiber to keep Bristol’s latest light on its feet. With 400 horsepower in the speedster at first and then coupe and hybrid versions to follow soon after this goes into production next year, the Bullet seems like a product worth taking a note of while we celebrate the company’s 70th anniversary. It’s been a rough ride.
