E.A.C. CAR FOR PN. {Mr Northey}

We think it is essential that if we are going to let PN. {Mr Northey} have a 40/50 HP. car with a new engine, we ought at the same time to let R. {Sir Henry Royce} have a similar car. He has already asked for such a car to be sent to him at Le Canadel(Henry Royce's French residence).
We think it is likely to annoy him if he finds that PN. {Mr Northey} is running a car about and criticising it before he has had an opportunity of doing so.
