B-10-DG.

We have had a complaint from this owner that he cannot read his speedometer when travelling through 30 m.p.h. limits at night. Will you please let us have your recommendations as to how the lighting can be improved.

This car is also having the low geared axle fitted as on Bentley 1. Will you please supply a correct thermometer.
