YOUR REF Thursday, 9th July, 1 9 3 6. W.A. Robotham, Esq., Experimental Department, Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., D E R B Y. Dear Robotham, With reference to the Servo on my 20h.p. Rolls Royce, which I mentioned to you when I was at Derby, I am going away for my holiday during the first part of August, and the car will be at Messrs. Park Wards from the morning of Saturday, August 1st, until Saturday, August 15th. If it is at all possible for you to arrange for the 'Servo' to be repaired whilst the car is at Messrs. Park Wards, I should be most exceedingly grateful. The chassis number, in case you want it is G.X.L.23. I do not think that the car wants anything else done except decarbonising, but Bayliss, my chauffeur, will do that himself as and when the opportunity occurs. I am so sorry to trouble you over this, but unless I have the Servo seen to whilst the car is at Messrs.Park Wards, it means that I shall be without the car at some time whilst the work is done. I hope by now you have heard from Mr. Worth confirming our interview last week. Please let me know if there is anything further you require done. Yours sincerely, Rothus. | ||
