15-EX CAR - IN FRANCE. +8940L

Referring to the telegram we sent you on Tuesday saying that the experimental car in France would not be available until the end of next week.

We have since received a letter from Rn.{Mr Robinson} saying -
"The reason we could not hand this car over on the date we originally promised was because the tests on the steering have taken longer than we anticipated".

They now promise that the car will be ready for you on Sat. the 10th. inst. Will you please let us know what arrangements you wish us to make.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
