20 HP. LORRAINE CAR.

We recommend that before this car is purchased it should be tried by someone from the Experimental Dept.
Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} will be in France next week and could arrange to try the car if it is purchased through Paris.

It is essential that we get hold of one of the special Lorraine cars as we have tested their standard products and know that they are not worth buying.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
