| "Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}" Derby X617 re 12-EX HK{Col. T. Harker - Sales}6/Dn/MM.23.5.27. We thank you for your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG20.5.27, but would say that the document you have returned to us is not the touring acquit, but the "grey card"(which corresponds to the British Registration Card). The touring acquit which we require is a large yellow document, the heading of which reads : "Acquit à caution", and this paper must have been on the car when it left France. We therefore hope you will be able to find this as soon as possible, as we need it for cancellation purposes. HK.{Col. T. Harker - Sales} K.{Mr Kilner} | ||
