S/W (Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}). X1052 CWB3/LH{Mr Haworth}15.10.25. With reference to our conversation regarding interesting new cars, Colonel Hawkins tells me that the new ?eight cylinder Panhard is regarded as the best car in France, that it has a very fine performance and that its springing and steering are very good. Before you decide on your new purchase, you may wish to see and try this, which, I think, Hk{Col. T. Harker - Sales} can arrange. In any case, he is visiting Derby for a day or two at the beginning of next week, when you will be able to discuss the matter with him. CWB. [Signature: CWB] -- | ||
