I think undoubtedly the weakest feature of the chassis for our conditions here were the brakes, but I know that somehow these are not called upon to do the work in America that they are over here. Also that the export trade is not a serious consideration for you and so perhaps the information is not really of much value. We were sorry not to be able to entertain Olley at the French or English Motor Show, but perhaps he will come over some time later. I am glad that things are looking up in the States, and hope that you are getting your share of business. Kind regards, Yours sincerely, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
