Developed in 1954 and produced until 1963, AC Aceca began life with a 1991cc engine from the AC Ace. This camshaft inline six-cylinder engine was designed by John Weller, the original owner of the AC, as far as the 1919th was a good engine, but it was at the end of its development, and so Aceca of (and indeed, Ace) was also offered with two versions of the engine that fueled the 405th Bristol
The Bristol engine, originally designed by BMW, was again a six-cylinder, but produces about 125 horsepower and gave her enough to maintain the performance of competitive car. To my knowledge, the Aceca was also available powered by a "B" version of this engine was biased at about the same power as the air conditioning unit.

To complicate things, around 1962, when Bristol Motor was not available, the company uses a version of the Ford Zephyr engine. He was without doubt the finest DC 2553.
However, no matter which engine was installed, the body was a fastback two places of modest size, but with the accent firmly on performance rather than comfort.
Acceleration and top speed put him on top of the class of (time), and driving characteristics, was exceptional. Suspension is fully independent of all using a transverse leaf spring. Complement the handling characteristics and performance of the car was ready for a nice change of torque, engine, at least Bristol is made from a high area.
When a top speed of 115 mph and zero to 60 times for 10 seconds is a jump from the competition, but was derived from the success in maintaining the track, but also helped to keep him in front of the queue.
Gasoline at the time was much cheaper and the air conditioning was introduced around 25mpg on a run and had a great, today, 13 gallon fuel tank with a radius of 300 miles.
It is perhaps one of the major car manufacturers, it is not often you see a car in 1960 and, as far as I can remember, I always just wanted to say a couple at that time. But it was a car that gets noticed and remembered!
Statistics are presented below for the Aceca Bristol Motor, AC version has a top speed around 105 mph and maybe a second faster or slower.
