| S/W {Sales / Derby Works} To Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 4¼-litre Bentley Test. Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 3/E19.5.36 I see from the report dated the 15th that the total miles run is 16,025. As I thought the maximum considered necessary was 15,000, I should be glad to know how much longer it is proposed to continue this test. Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
