| similar weather conditions. Even so 78° strikes me as being plenty cold enough and I should have thought 85°, as given in the handbook, was more nearly correct. It was this discrepancy between the figure you gave in your previous letter and that given in the handbook to which I drew attention in my letter addressed to Bentley Motors. I assume, however, the temperature given in your letter -78°- is the correct one. yours faithfully Gordon Thomas | ||
