| Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Bly.{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales} 261 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/R.8.6.37. Attached is Chandler's report on his visit to Mr. Molloy. This owner's attitude does not seem to be very reasonable. We are, of course, testing on the Bentley exactly the same type of plate as is giving us such good results on the P.III, i.e., the Long type of plate. This, however, will not be available immediately, and we prefer not to experiment on customers' cars. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
