To Bentley Motors Ltd. To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} -2- Sr/Dn8/Vf.23.3.39 I am doing my best to pacify Captain Molyneux, but unfortunately his driver was with the car on both occasions and the latter is no easy person to handle. It would seem that the steerings must have got over-stressed during transit to France, and if this should prove to be correct, surely this must indicate that there is a weak spot somewhere. I shall keep you informed. Sr. PS. Car just back in Paris with B-160-MR Steering | ||
