Dear Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer},

I enclose four photos of the Pugeot which I mentioned to you when last I saw you. They would have been along sooner, but the ones taken at the Brighton Rally were not very good, so I had to await an opportunity of getting more snaps at Brooklands.

I think it is a pretty car, but would be improved by not having sort of milk bottle tops down the side of the bonnet. I gather there is luggage space as well as a spare wheel in the tail.

I am much looking forward to my visit to Derby which will be in August sometime, I hope. Perhaps I might bring John Dugdale on that occasion.

AA.{D. Abbot-Anderson}
