Bristol 403 2.0 107

The Bristol 403 2.0 107 reaches 60 mph in 13.71 s (100 km/h in 15.14 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 20.23 s, tripping the lights at 72.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.61 s and the eighth mile in 13.40 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 403 2.0 107

The 1953 Bristol 403 2.0 107 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,260 kg with 106 bhp, which works out at 84 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 84 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 3.61 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 14,004th quickest to 60 mph, and the 20th quickest of the 21 Bristols here. Its 72.6 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Bristol 403 2.0 107 0-60 time?
The Bristol 403 2.0 107 reaches 60 mph in 13.71 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 14,004th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Bristol 403 2.0 107 quarter mile time?
20.23 s at 72.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 13.40 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.61 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Bristol 403 2.0 107 have?
106 bhp and 1,260 kg, which is 84 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 164 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Bristol 403 2.0 107?
Closest here on pace: Proton Waja/Impian 1.6 103 (13.51 s), Chrysler Saratoga 2.5 97 (13.55 s), Jeep Wagoneer 3.8 147 (13.84 s). Each one can be raced against the Bristol 403 2.0 107 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Bristol 403 2.0 107 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
