Re Continental Touring Limousine, 25.G.6, Wraith II.
-----------------------------------------------------
We have examined the seats of this car and find that they are not to drawing.
Normally we should have inspected the body prior to delivery, but in this case we were unable to get down to catch the body between the trimming of the seats and delivery.
The seats are definitely hard and not up to the Park Ward standard. The front seat needs to be lowered and the squab softened so as to give more leg-room. The rear seat needs lowering by softening and we are arranging to do these modifications. At the same time we are informing Messrs. Park Ward & Co. and making them responsible. The car shall be made right as soon as possible.
