contd :- -2- We are arranging for Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} y to come out and try the car at the end of this week and also to make several tests in order to try and obtain more information as regards the faults which have been complained of. We also want to know the exact mileage of the car from Boulogne to Chateauroux. This mileage should be added to the total miles run. We have assumed that it is approximately 1500 miles. The chief point I want to impress on you is that we are prepared to sacrifice mileage for useful information. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
