| P/W "D" Derby X677 HKl/Wn/LS.19.12.28. Re Chassis No.14 G IV. We thank you for your D/BP/YZ/B17.12.28, and have noted the details of the above car, which we are forwarding to the General Transport Cº, so that they may apply for the Touring Acquit. If the car is coming through Havre, it is essential that the owner accompanies the car. The Customs will not be satisfied with a power of attorney being given to the driver. If the driver is not in possession of a French Driving License, we can obtain one for him, for about Fcs.150.- provided you give us the following information by return :- 1) Driver's full name and address. 2) Date and place of birth. 3) 3 small photographs. We shall also be pleased to know the name and address of the owner of the car, as this information is required before the Touring Acquit can be applied for. HK.{Col. T. Harker - Sales} | ||
