To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}

Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}1/E10.4.34 - 2 -

3. Another good point was two Lucas lights underneath the bonnet on the dashboard and I am not sure whether I have already made it clear to E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} that I want to see lamps of this type standardised on all our XXXX cars as soon as possible.

It is just one of those little finishing touches which ought to be included on expensive cars such as ours.

If you are not sure of the type of lamp used, you could get a pair from Lucas' as supplied XX for the Lagonda car.

4. Instruction plate under the bonnet about lubrciating oils - I am writing a separate memo. about this.
