21-C-IV. Clutch Tests in London Traffic.

We have to-day despatched this car to Lillie Hall for tests in London traffic.

It is fitted with the clutch which has just been standardised on the Bentley, and in addition the Marles steering which recently ran 15,000 miles in France, but with the ratio altered to be similar to that of Nor's car.
