Sidgreaves - MD}11/E16.5.34 Would you please let me XXXX know what has happened about this car. It went to France for a 10,000 miles test. It was a failure for various reasons and was recalled but I believe was useful to test certain parts for production. I should like to see a programme of what the car is going to do next and for what purpose etc. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
