VAUXHALL 10 Herewith some further comments on the above following our journey to Leeds and back :- 1) The binding of the brakes is becoming worse and on one occasion the O.S. front brake was smoking slightly when we stopped. This brake was also doing most of the work for a time after this occasion. 2) The sticking of the throttle is also becoming more frequent and more difficult to rectify by jabbing the pedal.
