| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 600 Hm{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs}?/R.17.11.37. MILEAGE OF WRAITH CARS. You queried the other day the mileage of Wraith cars. So far the total is 35,000 miles, which includes 7,500 miles running in France. In view of the fact that the next car to go to France will be delayed until January, we are going to endeavour to get in as many miles on the existing Wraith cars as is consistent with our development programme.
