SpectreCodename for Phantom III II. We are arranging for this car, which represents the model to which the next 12 SpectreCodename for Phantom IIIs will be built and is somewhat in advance of the 3 which are at present being demonstrated, to go over to France on Thursday of next week. We are arranging for Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} to accompany the car as far as Paris. If there is any direct competitor at the Salon it should be possible to get some comparisons. The car will not be materially different from when it was tried by Sales on Friday last. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
