| 261 16th July, 1941. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/RH.{R. Hollingworth} C.L. Breeden Esq., Messrs. Wilmot-Breeden Ltd., Eastern Works, Camden Street, B I R M I N G H A M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Dear Breeden, When you collected your new Bentley V.{VIENNA} you fitted to it the number plates from off your old car. In consequence, this was left without number plates and we had to get a pair made. I enclose the invoice which you would perhaps be good enough to settle direct if you agree that it is your liability. I hope that your car is running satisfactorily. I have a carburetter modification which will improve the petrol consumption by 10% when you are able to spare the vehicle for a couple of days. Yours sincerely, | ||
