Bristol Cars [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/tarik-cohen-jersey/]Tarik Cohen Jersey[/url] , the iconic British carmaker specializing in sleek, hand-built and luxurious automobiles, has gone into administration, which is the British version of bankruptcy. Fine craftsmanship and providing services only to exclusive clients is what was known for this company which was based in Filton, Bristol in the United Kingdom and founded in 1945.

Tom MacLennan and Trevor Binyon of the RSM Tenon financial operation were named as administrators of the bankruptcy proceedings, according to the British Broadcasting Corporation. A total of 22 workers of the company’s 27-member staff were laid off, although the company hoped to find a buyer so that it could continue operating and producing cars. The company said that sales and service operations would continue as investors were sought.

Bristol Cars [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/anthony-miller-jersey/]Anthony Miller Jersey[/url] , which operated only one showroom, located on Kensington High Street in an upscale area of London, operated with a great degree of privacy. The company almost never publicly posted sales results. Unlike other car companies that attempt to appeal to the masses, Bristol did not allow members of the automotive press to test-drive its automobiles.

Well-known for producing a massively powered Fighter sports car that cost $300,000, had a 1,012-horsepower V10 engine with twin turbochargers and could easily exceed 210 miles per hour [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/jordan-howard-jersey/]Jordan Howard Jersey[/url] , Bristol Cars always had a limited lineup of models. The most recent lineup of the firm included the Fighter, the Blenheim Speedster, the Blenheim sedan and the luxury Series 6.

The V10 engine in the Fighter, a Chrysler V10, was the same engine that powered the world-renowned Dodge Viper. Some reports stated the Fighter could reach a speed of 275 miles per hour, although company officials insisted the top speed was 225 miles per hour.

The Blenheims were named for a twin-engine bomber that a previous incarnation of the company made during World War II.

The finely crafted automobiles produced by Bristol Cars attracted a small but loyal and devoted clientele that included some of the world’s wealthiest and most famous individuals. Rock singer Bono of the band U2, rock and soul performer Tina Turner [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/mitchell-trubisky-jersey/]Mitchell Trubisky Jersey[/url] , rock star Liam Gallagher and British entrepreneur Sir Richard Branson are all believed to have purchased at least one car from Bristol.

Bristol Cars owner Toby Silverton publicly stated three years ago that waiting lists for buyers were as long as 18 months, although that level of demand might have dissipated in recent years.

This year, Bristol Cars was believed to have been producing two to three automobiles each week. That slow pace might have been deliberate, however, adding to the company’s mystique. In 1982, for example, the last time the notoriously publicity-shy company officially released production statistics [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/roquan-smith-jersey/]Roquan Smith Jersey[/url] , Bristol Cars turned out 104 automobiles for the entire year.

Officially founded as a firm in 1945, Bristol Cars began production a year later. The company was formed when the Bristol Aeroplane Company branched out into the production of automobiles upon the conclusion of the war. Sir George White and Tony Crook, a Formula One driver, have been owners of the company in the past.

BEIJING, Dec. 18 (Xinhua) -- China's property market held broadly steady in November with home prices edging down in major cities amid tough purchase restrictions and a tight liquidity environment, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Monday.

New residential house prices went down on a yearly basis in 11 of the 15 major cities, considered the "hottest markets." On a month-on-month basis [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/khalil-mack-jersey/]Khalil Mack Jersey[/url] , new residential housing prices fell in 7 of the 15 cities, while Beijing, Shanghai, Zhengzhou and Wuhan saw prices flat with October.

NBS statistician Liu Jianwei said that housing prices stayed generally stable in major cities as differentiated control policies continued to take effect.

In first-tier cities where the curbs are strictest, home prices continued to soften, with new residential housing and second-hand home prices down 0.1 percent and 0.2 percent, respectively [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/]Custom Chicago Bears Jerseys[/url] , from a month earlier.

In contrast, the property market in second- and third-tier cities is showing signs of picking up, with new residential housing prices gaining 0.5 percent and 0.4 percent, respectively, from October.

The data provides evidence that government cooling measures to prevent asset bubbles in the property market are producing the desired outcomes.

Since late last year, dozens of local governments have passed or expanded restrictions on house purchases and increased the minimum downpayment required for mortgages.

The property market was also cooled by relatively tightened liquidity conditions as the government moved to contain leverage and risk in the financial system.

Chinese authorities have constantly reiterated that "houses are built for living in, not speculation [url=http://www.cheapnflbearsjerseys.com/]Throwback Chicago Bears Jerseys[/url] ," pledging to step up housing system reform and foster a long-term market mechanism.
