V8770 SECRET. To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. BJB/H30.3.25. TESTS OF E.A.C. CARS. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG27.3.25. On arrival of the cars in London, will you kindly have them placed behind the Albert Hall, so that they will not be noticed from the main road? I presume you will arrange for them to be stood at "Wilderness", Gerrards Cross, on Monday night if any of them are not being driven back to Derby the same night. I will try to arrange for the 40 H.P. Fiat to be available on Wednesday morning for you and any other technical officials who wish to try it. B.J. | ||
