| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to BJ. X180 20 HP. AT WW. X.5770 X.180 X.5830 R3/M7.9.27. There is the high compression 20 HP. car with Windover open touring body at WW., which can be returned to Derby to be utilised in some way. The chassis is good but the body is very poor. We are hoping to have our experimental 20 HP. cars like India 3. and therefore these specimens will soon become obsolete. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
