Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG22.6.22 I have written to C. to arrange for amateurs to drive this 7-Goshawk-II. Please let me know what mileage has been run on this car by Maddocks. Is it now being driven 300 miles per day regularly? If not, C.J. wishes you to instruct Maddocks to do so until the amateur drivers arrive. B.J.
