| 1021 4.11.37. 19.G.VI. FITTED WITH MULLINER BODY. This car ran 94,179 miles with this body fitted while in the exptl., afterwards being handed over to Hucknall when its average mileage was 900 per week. We have no record of the total Hucknall mileage but this could be obtained no doubt from Hucknall. This body gave very satisfactory service the only real troubles were the lock fixings, the actual locks were alright it was just a matter of weak fixture. We attach extracts from Hancocks 15,000 miles French test. We have checked through the files and can only find repair estimates for approx. £20. this includes covers being periodically cleaned.
