Bristol D

Buses and Road Mass Transit Vehicles

The Bristol D was a six cylinder passenger chassis built by the Bristol Tramways and Carriage Company, one of the two models of 1929 for which a new six cylinder petrol engine was added to the range. The Bristol CV Buses website records production between 1930 and 1932, a total of 50 built and the Bristol JW six cylinder petrol engine, with bus and coach bodies by Bristol, Eaton and London Lorries. Bristol Tramways took 41, Rhondda six and Greyhound Motors two. In 1931 the D was joined by the G and J, which used the same JW engine, while the C, built alongside it, never got past the prototype stage.
