S/W. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} [text struck through] Phantom III Demonstration Car. With regard to the exchange of 35-EX for a better car, would you please let me know if it will be possible to make this exchange before we send such a car to Geneva for the Geneva Show ? Whichever car we send will have to leave London on Friday, 20th instant, and at the present moment we are planning to send 35-EX. If however it is possible for us to send a better one we should be glad to know, as it affects the preparations which are necessary for sending a car abroad. If there is likely to be any uncertainty we had better carry on with 35-EX, but naturally we wish to make the best possible impression with this car abroad, and if you can help us we should be greatly obliged.
