| -2- The Cadillac 16 which we had over here required its brakes re-lining every 3,000 miles. Under similar conditions, and putting up a higher average speed, our Bentley brakes last for about 28,000 miles. In the improbable event of us being able to give you any technical information in exchange for your help, we shall be happy to do so to the best of our ability. Yours sincerely, | ||
