X7772' To: Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} From: Oy. c. Srn. Oy10/DM.{D. Munro}17.6.30. 24-EX. Understand this car is nearly finished with most of the improvements for the 200 order. I don't want to hold up the 10,000 m.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} test, but both Srn. and I would welcome an opportunity to try the car on roads we know before it goes to France, if this can be done without delaying the job. Will also hold myself at your disposal to go to France when you desire, but Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} will be returning about Thursday June 26 and I ought not to go till after seeing him.
