| -2- Contd. We are also at present looking for a head lamp having greater illuminating powers than those at present fitted to our 40/50 car. We do not find these latter very satisfactory for high continental road speeds or for driving on the modern tarmac road in the rain. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED+ | ||
