| SECRET. X8774 S/W. (for Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}) CWB.2/AMC/22.12.27. CHASSIS 10-EX. I understand you will be able to spare 10-EX for a trial by Sales Officials after Christmas. It will be convenient if you could send the car up to London on Thursday or Friday, December 29th or December 30th, preferably the former day. We should expect to keep it for seven or eight days. In view of the instructions regarding the car not being seen in the centre of London, nor in our own garages, perhaps you would arrange to leave it at the garage where it was put up on the occasion of a former visit - as far as I can remember, it was somewhere off the Gloucester Road. If you can arrange this, and will advise me of the address of this garage, it will be very convenient. CWB [signature] | ||
