Lincoln House, 18, Victoria Street, London. S.W.1. Dear sir, We thank you for your letter of the 27th inst. and regret that this has not been answered before, but this has been mislaid. We should like to know whether your car would be available to make a trip to the south of England early next week or the week after in order that it may be tried by our chief engineer. If you would give us approx. dates at your disposal, we might be able to fit in a visit that would be convenient to both parties. Yours faithfully, For Rolls-Royce Ltd | ||
