Upholstery on Open Body Goshawk
-----------------------------
We recently had a complaint from Hy{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} in France, stating that the colour goes into solution when wet on the car he is trying there. Messrs. Mulliners write us that they are at a loss to understand this; they have taken the matter up with the Manufacturers of the leather who request an opportunity of examining it when the car is next in Town.

Can you please let us know when the car is likely to be here, so that we may make arrangements for the leather people to study the matter.
