London Trials Car GUL-1.

You are anxious to have this car at W. for exhaust boom at 30 m.p.h. and we have now detailed this car to come to you on Monday afternoon next, 16th instant for this purpose.

We should very much like to have the engine decarbonised, and are wondering whether you could conveniently arrange this whilst it is in your possession by handing it over to Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} after you have finished your exhaust tests.

Would you please let us know if this can be done and also how long you wish to keep the car, including the exhaust and decarbonising work.

Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}
