Continuation 1-

have my car in. I do realise that you are very busy but I understand that your London Repair Depot have so much work in hand that some cars are kept for ten days before the necessary work can be commenced.

I feel that having done such wonderful business with your Company, you would have given my car priority. I am certain you would have been able to gather some useful data for your Company to know how the car is wearing after it has been driven 10,000 miles; most of the time at its maximum speed.

In fact, I was wondering whether, if I send the car to you, you could loan me another interesting car to use in the interim.

Yours sincerely,

Jack Barclay.
