M.82.MG. W.A. Robotham, Esq., Rolls-Royce Ltd., Derby. Dear Mr. Robotham, During the course of this year you have been receiving reprints of the road tests we have carried out each month, but it will be self-evident that we are now no longer in a position to continue with these tests. Hence, I am no longer able to send you reprints. However, I should like you to know that this is a temporary suspension and that as soon as it is possible to start our service again, we shall do so. In the meantime all we can do is to hope that the changes which have been forced upon us will be of short duration and that a successful issue will be the outcome of the present unfortunate state of affairs. May I wish you personally the best of good fortune. Sincerely yours, Laurence Pomeroy TECHNICAL EDITOR. LP{Mr Lappin}/KO | ||
