M.C. Wilks, Esq.,
The Rover Company Ltd.,
New Meteor Works,
COVENTRY.

Dear Wilks,

The perennial question of body space on the Bentley has cropped up.

It would help me a lot if you could send me a drawing of your 16 H.P. close-coupled and normal saloons to which I could refer. I should be very grateful if you could let me have these.

Yours sincerely,
