Cx. {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 2/EW.10.1.36.

At the Conference last Wednesday you asked me to let you know what was the petrol consumption of 35-EX, now in London.

Over 1,280 miles this has worked out at 8.7 m.p.g.

A careful inspection reveals no leak whatever from the steering and the box is full of oil.
