when the shock absorbers were tight,or to the slackness in
the steering ( there was practically 2" movement of the
steering wheel rim of what appears to be play ) I cannot say,
but I would infinitely prefer to drive the standard Bentley
fast than this particular car, quite apart from the objection
to the body.
