doesn't worry me for the rise of temp: would probably be the result of pushing the car to an uncomfortable degree to which an owner would object. The car is running very well generally and apart from the criticism, which (I have run out of nibs) we are all aware of. I am liking it the more I drive it. The brakes tend to become ineffective after 150 miles, we are thinking this may be due to oil getting into wrong place somewhere. I have not heard anything of the 20 HP yet and hope it may turn up today or tomorrow. I hope to be in London again at latest on Friday. If the 3 small jobs | ||
