Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Paull. Development Dept. We have a car which demonstrates to a remarkable degree the peculiar noises which can arise from tyres, apart from those normally experienced. We think it would be of interest if you could try this car, and would like to bring it over on Friday morning next, if this will be convenient to you. Yours faithfully, | ||
