| COPY. Villa Bergeronnettes, ANGLET - B.P. 18th July/33. Messrs.Andre & Co., LONDON. Gentlemen, I am highly delighted with the Telecontrol shock absorbers you fitted recently to my Continental Rolls Royce. The improvement in road holding under all conditions is most marked, the car corners admirably now and seems happier in her job. Without driving any faster than is my usual practice and without any particularly favourable road conditions I bettered my previous best average speed from Boulogne to Biarritz by more than two miles an hour which I attribute entirely to the new shock absorbers. I am, Gentlemen, Very truly yours, (sgd). ROBERT R.GLEN. | ||
