My dear Robotham, Many thanks for your letter of the 17th instant, and for your advice in regard to the 4¼ litre, which I found most useful. As a matter of fact I think my car is now running very well indeed, and, under the circumstances, I will carry on for the present, at any rate until I see whether the body holds together or not, which is really the only grouse I have had for the last 12 months. With kind regards and many thanks. Yours sincerely, A.H.R.Fedden. | ||
