| 2006 1012 Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. Ey. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}18/R.4.2.38. When discussing the luggage capacity on B.III with Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} to-day, he remarked that they would be willing to accept a side number plate. We should like the second Bentley body built with the floor of the luggage compartment dropped to the absolute limit, and, if necessary, a side number plate, or, alternatively, a split bumper.
