| S/W {Sales / Derby Works} (Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ). X1052 CWB3/LH {Mr Haworth} 15.10.25. With reference to our conversation regarding interesting new cars, Colonel Hawk(Aero Engine)ins tells me that the new ?eight cylinder Panhard is regarded as the best car in France, that it has a very fine performance and that its springing and steering are very good. Before you decide on your new purchase, you may wish to see and try this, which, I think, Hk {Col. T. Harker - Sales} can arrange. In any case, he is visiting Derby for a day or two at the beginning of next week, when you will be able to discuss the matter with him. CWB. [Signature: CWB] -- | ||
