I should feel more secure if I had a spare condenser on the car. I note that you are considering the possibility of fitting such a spare condenser, and when you have the fitting available I should be much obliged if you would arrange to send me one, together with a condenser, in order that I may have it fitted on the car. Yours faithfully, Bernard Hopps. (Director) | ||
