We have had a very interesting discussion with Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} today regarding the above and no doubt he will report to you the results of our discussion. In order to get a Bentley trials car running with radio fitted we are arranging for Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}'s car to be equipped with the latest Philco set and we hope to have this running in time for use on the car when Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} goes on the continent.
