S9/B1&412 re Mercedes Car X407

URGENT

Sales dept. are pleased to note there is a possibility of having this car back within a fortnight's time, and beg us not on any account to be any longer than this time, and if possible to have it ready for delivery earlier, as they are particularly desirous of disposing of the car, and are endeavouring to keep interested the two enquirers for that period. Kindly give this matter your prompt attention, as naturally we do not want to lose the sale.

A.S.

WHives 19/4/12
Please note. I propose confirming that we shall complete our experiments about. May 1st. is this OK.
