| X1053 The ZENITH CARBURETTER·CO·LTD CARS DRIVEN BY OUR STAFF ARE AT CUSTOMERS OWN RISK AND RESPONSIBILITY. TELEGRAMS: ZENICARBUR, PHONE, LONDON. CODE: A.B.C. 5TH EDITION. 40 - 44 NEWMAN STREET LONDON·W ALSO AT LYONS, PARIS, DETROIT, TURIN, BERLIN. TELEPHONE: MUSEUM 9106-9. Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd. DERBY. 3rd July 1934 Dear Sirs, We recently took the liberty of writing to you with reference to the Zenith carburetter, but unfortunately we have had no reply. We understand that you are making tests with various carburetters on your cars, and we should very much like to be given an opportunity of showing what the Zenith will do. We do not think you have had any experience of our latest "V" type carburetter, which has been so very successful, being standardized on 54% of the vehicles that were produced in Europe during 1933. Wherever we have made tests we have been able to beat our competitors, so we feel sure that we could show you some very interesting figures if we were given an opportunity of testing. - 1 - | ||
