Dear Mr. Robotham, With reference to my conversation the other night, I should very much like to try out one of the 3 1/2 Litre Bentleys, and as I understand you can get one down from Bentley Motors, London, any time, I shall be extremely obliged if you can arrange for one to call at my house on Sunday morning the 2nd December, somewhere about 10.30., and in order to give the Car a fair test I should like to do a fairly long run, say 100 miles out and 100 miles back. I trust this will be possible. Yours sincerely, Percy W. Lee. P.S. Kindly note the Car must be a four-seater saloon body. | ||
