Postscript about a customer changing their order to two 20/25 HP models and the sales potential in the U.S.

P.S.. As a proof of Mr. Gowan's interest in the 20/25 h.p. we learn this morning that he has changed his order for one P.II and one 20/25, to an order for two 20/25's, since after his trial run on the smaller car he is convinced that "he wants nothing better than that".

There is no danger that American owners, other than enthusiasts like Mr. Gowan, will agree with him in sufficient quantity to jeopardise the sale of P.II but there are undoubtedly enough prospects similar to Mr. Gowan to make for numerous sales of 20/25's in the U.S.

Of course in the 'country' districts (i.e. outside New York) there is, as you know, practically no sale for cars with r.h. steering.
