If you have a record of the consumption of your Trials Cars you should be able to compare this with the figure you obtain after the changeover. With regard to the 40/50? we want to send a man down to Cricklewood to investigate the hesitation, and if he is able to cure it, to show Cricklewood exactly what to do. We suggest Monday of next week! Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
