S.III WING RIPPLING

With reference to your JS.{Mr Johnson's Secretary}6/MS 12.1.66, any help by your Area Representatives in putting the idea over to Retailers would be appreciated. The arrangements I have made so far are that the styling strips will be added by Retailers at their own cost on any S.III taken back in part exchange. This helps the Retailer because he can do a quick turn-round and the styling strip gives the car a distinctive touch which might attract attention in the Showrooms. The trade-in price ought also to be better.
