A Viper powered, gull-winged GT. I was shocked to read how few were produced through the 8 year run. One source says 13, while another says 10.

Thats because they cost a quarter of a million pounds and looked stupid.

It's a shame the Fighter T (the turbo'd, 1,012 bhp version) was limited to 225 mph. Well, that and the fact that they only made a few of them.

Same with the Keating TKR.

Do want.

I'd forgotten about the T.

Keating TKR = To the Googles I go.

If Le Mans had a category for road-legal cars - drive to France, race, drive home - then the Fighter T would have been a big seller. As it was...

They couldn't get the tyres to go any faster, I seem to recall.

It wouldn't surprise me. Tires tend to dislike extremely high speeds.

There's one on Autotrader UK, a 2010 with 1,100 miles on the clock in silver at GBP£159,950 (USD$269,000). You can expect this car to hold it's value quite well if other Bristols are anything to go by.
