Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 18/R.4.2.38.

When discussing the luggage capacity on B.III with Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} to-day, he remarked that they would be willing to accept a side number plate.

We should like the second Bentley body built with the floor of the luggage compartment dropped to the absolute limit, and, if necessary, a side number plate, or, alternatively, a split bumper.
