Cx {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 10/ES.27.7.37.

You will remember at the Conference at W. yesterday I said we had a bad clutch on GAN-54, London Trials.

This car, I understand, left London this morning and should now be with you. I hope you will be able to ascertain the cause of the clutch being so bad and remedy it in a way that will be permanent.

I shall be interested to hear from you in due course, what is the trouble.
