| BAYSWATER 4531. 12, KENSINGTON PALACE GARDENS, W.8. 261 109 December 20th, 1937. Dear Mr. Robotham, It was very good of you to send the tyres along for me to try. I learnt quite a bit about them. Driving up the other day, about half way through the journey I still found the car too harsh, and I am wondering if the big tyres in front would improve matters? As I am getting rid of this car in January, it is not worth while having new tyres in front, but I would just like your opinion so that we know where we are when I have my next car. I would prefer to keep the wheels I have, and tyres, and you can make me a special price for them as they have already been used. Have you yet tried out the big Indian tyres, cut? Again very many thanks for your attention. Yours S Cholmondeley W.A.Robotham, Esq. | ||
