24th. Mar. 1919.

We hope to send the "Delage" Car to Mr. Royce in about a weeks time. We have got several things in hand to improve the consumption. We have an R.R. Carburetter and also a more efficient heating arrangement for the present carburetter but unfortunately the weather has been so very bad that we have not been able to do any decent testing.

The car has black number plates it also has a hood and wind screen and good tyres.

EH.
