Liam Gallagher can’t drive but owned a rare Bristol Car

Liam Gallagher is reuniting with his brother for a comeback Oasis concert, but there’s one thing that he won’t be seeing again – this super rare Bristol car.

The rocker may have cash to splash, but he’s never spent any on a driving license.

Perhaps that why this beautiful car didn’t last long in his garage.

Still, it must have been nice to look at.

Why Liam Gallagher never drove this iconic car

Gallagher, much like his brother Noel, has never learned to drive.

Given the millions both have made, a chaffeur likely isn’t too much of a hassle for them.

In typical Liam fashion, his explanation for not learning to drive was laced with choice words.

Speaking to GQ magazine, he said: “No [I can’t drive].

“That’s why I’m still alive. Can you imagine me driving? Nah. ‘Ey! I can f**kin’ drive!’ Boom! I’d have killed us all years ago.”

At least he’s honest about his limitations.

One car that came into his possession was from the Bristol Cars company.

The company has had a tumultuous time over the years, being rescued from in 1997 and 2011 from total catastrophe.

However, the company began developing something of a cult following in the 1990s.

It was then when Gallagher purchased a Bristol 603 for his then wife Patsy Kensit.

The rise and fall of Bristol Cars

Originally, the company was in the business of making military airplanes, but its main reason for being was trams.

Bristol Tramways ran from 1875 to 1941, when it was destroyed by the German bombing campaign of the Second World War.

Cars were brought into the mix after 1918, when demand for war airplanes took a decline.

However, the cars began losing their appeal in the 1970s and 1980s, when the new designs soured with buyers.

Its 1993 Blenheim was described as ‘dated’.

Although it had its fans with celebrities like Gallagher and Sir Richard Branson, the company didn’t stand a chance against the big dogs of the car world.

In 2020, Bristol Cars entered liquidation.

Bristol Cars are still a treat when found by petrolheads, as the Bearded Explorer could testify to when he discovered some inside an abandoned mansion.
