REPORT ON CHASSIS 93-NK AFTER 15,447 MILES (IN FRANCE)
-------------------------------------------------

Electrical Fittings. X7740 X8560

These generally are O.K. Better armouring of connections to rear lamp should be supplied, as in our case the armour has been worn right through by the continual buffeting from sand and slush. The electrical cutout has stuck on three occasions. Examination of the points shews them to be very badly burnt and pitted. We have cleaned these up as far as it is possible.
