Dubonnet Suspension.

Re your Sr.1/Crn.15.11.34. As Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} is going to be in Paris on Tuesday week, the 27th, he would like to try the car then under the conditions for which Dubonnet has adjusted it.

I shall be at Avenue George V at 9.30 on Saturday 24th and would like to try the car with you. This will allow a little time to alter the adjustment of the suspension if found necessary before Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} tries the car.

We hope that by the time Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} tries the car Dubonnet will be satisfied that he has done all he can to the suspension of this particular car.

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les.
