PN.{Mr Northey}/WT12.6.30.

I propose taking a week's holiday from the 2nd July, in the Lake District, and I would be glad if you would please let me know whether you have any experimental car which I might usefully use during that time, putting in a few hundred miles under rather stressful conditions of running, i.e. hills etc.
I am anxious to hear about this as soon as possible.

PN.{Mr Northey}
