To E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} & H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}10/H15.2.35 - 2 - certainly gives a good ride both in the front and the back. I should like to try the car as soon as it is considered that it/gives as good a ride as the Cadillac on ordinary roads. The brakes on the SpectreCodename for Phantom III as tried yesterday were very poor with a definite tendency to pull to the right, the latter I assume was due to incorrect adjustment. Sg.{Arthur F.
