| (5370) SECRET. To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. BJ1/H25.8.25. 20 HP. Car fitted with Four-Wheel Brakes. With reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}6/LG20.8.25, PN.{Mr Northey} and CWB. are glad to hear that investigations have been carried out to cure the rattle you mention, as they look on it as one which would be complained of by customers, and probably the engine would be blamed for the rattle. We are therefore anxious that cars shall not be delivered to customers before this rattle has been entirely overcome. B.J. | ||
