- In today's video, James introduces why filming the Bristol 411 and Bristol 404 with Antony was so important. Bristol Cars is a British marque that meant more to Antony than James ever knew... or could have guessed! This is why filming these Bristol cars was not just desirable, it was essential!

Anthony, could you tell us more about your background, how you ended up on your own, and how you got up from rock bottom to being able to afford an R8?
@@richardharrold9736 We plan to film that story for a 'Life in Cars' video that will eventually appear on JayEmm On Cars... In short - my parents are both from overseas... First my mum decided to return to her country of origin when I was 12/13 years old... then when I was 18 my dad returned to his country of origin. I stayed as prospects there weren't great in my chosen field. I worked really hard, put myself through uni doing something I loved - computing - got a job in IT and did reasonable well at it... started a business or two... nearly lost it all a couple of times... pulled it back and survived. But, as they say, the devil is in the details.... and that will be in the video we film in a few months hopefully. Thanks for watching!
Great story from an awesome human being, really happy for Antony
Thank you Phil! Thanks for watching!
A dear departed friend had a Bristol 411 , also a Jensen , a Rolls Royce & an Aston Martin , such a beautiful collection of cars
Love this marque beautiful cars with true class but understated, the perfect English car. Lovely video thank you!
Lovely! Thank you all 🤩
Great video! I went in the showroom at least twice in my life and I met some great salespeople there and as a teen, I wondered how I would raise the £35,000 back in 1983 to buy a 411 myself!!
I never had the guts to go in... I always stood outside. Wishing that I had now. Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!
Cool vid Anthony. Glad to hear part of your journey too….👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks for watching!
Loving the Bristol features. These cars are so rare especially the later ones that you don’t like so much!!! Way under valued for quintessential handmade quality. More please, you can come and drive my Bristol Blenheim in Houston if you like!
Well, the 404 just had more character, but I didn't dislike either... I like both, I just liked the 404 more 😁
We'll keep it in mind if we're ever near Houston!
I have always loved this Marque, the best looking is 404, the styling of which they planned to recreate when trying to resurrect the company!
It's a really lovely car! This one will always be "Cherryblossom" to me 😆
1:45 Great music choice!
Thank you! I took extra time over the music while editing this video! Hope you enjoyed the other tracks too.
I'm going to take one for the team
A nice pair of Bristols
For what it's worth, that was in the voiceover in an early edit... But, didn't really fit with the mood so it was taken out. Thanks for being the one who got that one in there 😆
@@sportzntouring yep it's too obvious
I'm a day late but thank you for your service, never pass up on what even Jennifer Saunders says is too good a joke.
I spent many a lunchtime staring in that showroom window back in my late teens back in the mid 80’s, breaks my heart it’s not there anymore! Great video Anthony!
so cool, thanks
Thank you!
I lived about 500 yards away from the showroom. I was the oich often found with my nose pressed against the window of the showroom, much to the disgust of the people within.
What I always loved that they happily sold the old cars alongside the latest model.
Still can't afford one though 😋😭
Ha ha! Sounds like me 😆
My favourite was the Bristol 404. Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!🥶
It will always be Cherryblossom to me 😁👍
Ha ha! Thanks for watching!
The 404 hands down no contest!
great video Anthony. Interesting background story.
Thank you. More on the story to come.
Love this. I have a connection to Bristol cars as well. Not as personal as Ant's but it's very real to me. My dad grew up in Bristol and during WW2, he was evacuated to Salisbury because Bristol was being bombed because warplanes were being built there. My granddad and grandmother both worked in the aircraft factory making those planes. After the war, the company turned to making cars & the results were the cars in the video. I've always had a hankering for one as well. One day.....
I love a self made underdog story 🥲 the music really takes you on a journey 👏 absolutely amazing video #cherryblossom
Ha ha! Thanks Ben!
@@sportzntouring likewise... normally I distrust people with what looks like too much money (I was taught this by a Yorkshire lawyer neighbour, who loathed ostentation and observed that Branson could explain every one of his millions except the first...), as usually the rich are born to privilege and exploit class and tax evasion to reinforce inequality... but even at my most angry socialist, I cannot bring myself to believe that someone like you who has worked their way up from the very bottom doesn't deserve some nice toys... as long as you're not a Patel/Braverman "pull the ladder up behind you" type!
@@richardharrold9736 I've been poor, I've seen and been among the rich... And I'm not anywhere near what I'd describe as rich... Nowhere near the resources that would even make tax avoidance economical even if it was something I'd do. But I'm doing ok, and always striving to achieve more. And I can explain every penny, from every drop of blood, sweat and tears.
@@sportzntouring and that I absolutely can respect. People who've made enough to be comfortable from the sweat of their own brow. Not profiting from the exploitation of those less fortunate. Eh, don't listen to me, I'm just pissed that I can't afford to get my E66 760Li back on the road...
@@richardharrold9736 Antony was a great help when I started my career, he deserves all that he's worked for
Great feel-good video. Why did you wait all this time to release it?
Glad you liked it. Well, there's a lot that happens between filming and releasing... Editing is the major part. This one had some extra editing overheads. There were distracting technical and time related challenges on the day that compromised my in-car dialogue delivery and that needed extra work during the editing process. All in this took a good several long days to edit. So, we had to wait until we felt the release schedule could either take a hit or we had enough completed videos in the release pipeline to give me the space to edit it... I'm glad of the delay as it happens... Since filming this, we've changed the software we both use for editing *and* I've developed a lot as an editor, accelerated by James's guidance... I don't think I could have achieved this result 6 months ago. I'm very very happy with the result now (save for a few things I might do differently if money and time were infinite).
You've got my admiration too Anthony, although must be said I end up admiring nearly everybody
Ha ha! Then, I am in good company! 😆
An allergy warning should be mandatory for this video.
I'm very touched by this. Congrats, Antony!
Did the pollen count suddenly increase where you watched this? I guess, we did film it in summer 😉
@SPORTZNTOURING yes; it was the weirdest thing! I'm very happy you could make it to that special day of driving these special cars. They give new meaning to the term "aspirational!"
@@jamesengland7461 I'm very grateful for all the opportunities that have come my way. Sometimes it's just about persevering long enough... Thanks for watching. Hope the hayfever has cleared up 😁
...did he just say "two beautiful bristols" ??
I did indeed 😳
We had a 405 back in the day BMW engine something that was presented to the English in war wright s it was fabulous in the back leather coachwork full aluminium body it was sold at auction in about 1996 for 8000 punts would love to know where she ended up if the buyer ever comes across this it was slane mill transport museum when the auction was held
I really hope you find out what happened to it. It sounds beautiful. I hope you enjoyed the video.
I always loved bristols. thought all men did.
Especially a nice pair of them...
Very 'Carry On'
Hi,the video is great,can i invite you to shoot video for us,we have the throttle controller and function racing gauges here that I think is very suitable for your video and audience.
Sorry but I prefer JayEmm on cars
Each to their own... But preferring James's main channel is fine... This channel isn't meant to be "instead of" JayEmm On Cars... It's as well as... For JayEmm fans who want a bit more behind the scenes and deeper connections with the people and the cars behind JayEmm On Cars videos. Of course, if you had usable feedback as to what we could improve, we'd be more than happy to hear it 👍
David, how very stereotypically "comment section" of you. Antony, very gracious of you, kind sir.
@@jamesengland7461 thanks for your kind words. And, Indeed, we can't do anything with a declaration of an individual's preference (I'm not sure what that's supposed to achieve). But, constructive criticism we can use to make improvements.
@@sportzntouring Replied to him far better than I would have done. Both channels are great but in their own way. Keep doing what you're doing :)
@@GryphLane the support is hugely appreciated. Thank you 👍
