1064 5th April, 1941. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/1/ET. G.R. MINCHIN, Esq., Messrs. Peto & Radford, 50, Grosvenor Gardens, LONDON S.W. 1. Dear Minchin, I do not know why my friend has not gone further with the question of purchasing your Bentley, because he seemed very keen when I spoke to him about it. I will contact him again and find out what has happened. We have not been able to collect the Frazer Nash yet, owing to the hundred and one jobs that we seem to have round our neck, in connection with the war effort. However, we do not intend to forego the pleasure of driving this car indefinitely. Yours sincerely, | ||
