| X7770 To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. 14-EX. BJ7/E30.5.28 When the Sales officials were testing the above car, there were one or two details which they noticed and which you would probably wish to consider. I have not sent them to R.{Sir Henry Royce} as I expect they are points which you could deal with. (1). The actual push button for the starter control was not high quality in appearance nor particularly convenient. (2). The position of the steering wheel controls etc. is approved and found to be an improvement over the present "D" position. (3). The general appearance was decidedly appreciated, especially that the whole car appeared to be hung much lower. BJ. | ||
