I was very interested to read your report upon your test of the car with two wheels and tyres carried beyond the rear cross tube.

I enclose copy of memo. I have written to Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} in respect of the Prince of Wales' car, in connection with which this particular question arose.

I should like to have your further views upon the question of the steering in view of what I have set out in my memo. to Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}
