| -2- Contd. modern use of a motor car is for all purposes and they are not kept for use separately in town or country, as may have been the case formerly. As a basis for discussion in regard to Spain, we would suggest 10% stiffer in front, 5% stronger at the back, for all cars - and the same passenger and luggage allowance as made for British cars. Whatever is settled and agreed in regard to Spain, would, we believe, be applicable to quite a number of other Continental countries who are at present being given the 20% stiffer springs.
