The coachwork on this car was of course very much worse than that of 21-G-IV after it had completed 15,000 miles in France. We have never allowed Messrs. Park Ward to examine the car in its final condition to rectify the defects. In view of the fact that the coachwork people are going to France to try 21-G-IV, we are proposing to let Messrs. Park Ward have 28-EX next week. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
