| X33/7 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}6/KW. 1st November, 1934. Messrs. Lendrum & Hartman Ltd., Buick House, Albemarle St.{Capt. P. R. Strong}, LONDON, W.1. Dear Sirs, You will recollect that some time ago you gave us a demonstration on one of the Series 40 Buicks with a view to our purchasing one of these cars. At the time we criticised the ride and you wrote saying you thought this could be improved. We are anxious to try one of these cars again and at the same time to try one of the Series 50 with a view to purchasing one for the Company. As far as we know, Wednesday or Thursday of next week would be most convenient for the run. We should be glad to know whether this could be arranged at Bignall's corner as previously. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
