Chassis 128-PY. Wyns.

Replying to H14/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} 2.11.34.

We think that your letter to Mr. Wyns deals with the matter very adequately.

Actually of course we are treating the matter of the behaviour of the car on very rough roads most seriously, and in the SpectreCodename for Phantom III hope to have a product which will answer such criticisms.
