Replying to PN{Mr Northey}9/GM7.11.27. As we are having to crowd such a lot of experimental work on 10-EX car, it is very difficult for us to say when this car will be available for you to try.
It will not be possible for you to try the car on Thursday the 18th. as we are taking it to WW. on that day. It will not be available this weekend because we are busy preparing the new parts for R.{Sir Henry Royce} to examine.
Possibly when you visit Derby next week we may be able to make some satisfactory arrangement.
Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
