PEREGRINE STARTER MOTOR

Replying to SglO/E6.12.32.

The starter motor fitted to the car in France is not the type which it is proposed to produce, also the dynamo on that car is not the final type.

We expect to have the improved units fitted to the next Peregrine car which will go out immediately after Christmas.
