Regarding your memo re weight of demonstration cars.

I have now been able to have B.125.FC. weighed and find that this comes out at 33 cwt. 2 qrs. 7 lbs.
B.3.GA. weighs 33 cwt. 1 qr. 0 lbs.

Both these cars are full of petrol, oil and water and fully equipped.

You have got B.2.GA. at the Works so doubtless you will be able to get the weight of this.

J.L.E.
