Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Bly.{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales}
Bly.{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales}11/EC.15.3.39.

Concerning your Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/14.3.39, I phoned Grys. as follows:

We gather from the sole concessionaires of Riley in London that they have not yet delivered a 16 H.P.Riley Saloon and do not anticipate getting one for about four weeks.

Regarding Willys, we can get hold of one of these for you to try any time on Friday. Perhaps you would let me know when and where.
