We want to get an opportunity of riding in one or two finished Phantoms with the low rating front springs, in the immediate future. The idea will be to get hold of these cars when they are on road test prior to delivery. If you would get in touch with J.L.E. and find out when such cars might be coming through, we can run down from Derby to Cricklewood so as to inconvenience the job as little as possible.
