To HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/RM.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Cricklewood, July 27th. Bentley Clutch. This car has run 500 miles in the London traffic during last week. The clutch is still good and no sign of wear. On a steep incline there is a transmission rattle when engaging but I should not consider it to be objectionable. | ||
