Private Car Insurance.

Re Asy.{Len Astley - Orders}24/EC.1.4.35.

Having returned to England I find that my O.M. car, Reg. No. Y.L.1836 has been sold, so that I do not want this car now covered by insurance.

At the moment I have no intention of getting a new car for a month or so. I may wait until the new models appear.

There is one point, however, which I should very much like to retain. This is having a policy which will cover me for third party for occasional use of cars belonging to R.R. Ltd. This is necessary to cover such times, when testing can be combined with a certain amount of pleasure, when I am not officially paid by R.R.Ltd.

I should be very grateful if you would investigate this matter, as I do not want to have to refuse to drive on such occasions, although they are extremely rare.

Of course when I get my new car I shall want to continue insurance with the G.A.A.C., who at the moment owe me a few shillings I believe.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie}
