Dear Sirs, Demonstration of Accelerometer. We regret that we have not advised you before about the date we would like to see your accelerometer, but unfortunately, the "Autocar" people did not reply to our letter or 'phone calls until today when they wrote postponing the appointment for a fortnight. We apologise for any inconvenience we may have caused you, and perhaps we may be able to fix an appointment later. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
