1113 KINGSBURY. GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}/DPB/5.8.37. re: K.L.G. FE.30. PLUGS. --------------------- I have investigated at Cricklewood today and found one owners car there - 3.AZ.76 (mileage 8,600) belonging to the Duke of Sutherland. This car has just returned from a Continental tour - fast driving - using all kinds of petrol. The examination of the plugs found them in a very good condition. There was no sign of burning at all in the central electrode. The gaps measured were .30. At present this is the only case in at Cricklewood of Phantom III's which have done any mileage.
