Re. PEREGRINE.

Replying to Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}4/KW.29.12.32.

The final silencer will be arranged with the exhaust snout in a similar position to that on the present 20/25 and P.2.

As regards the petrol filler, this is very little different in height to the 20/25. On some of the Peregrine cars we have which are the close-coupled Continental type we could not do with any less height on the filler. Also the present height is necessary in order to fill the tank and prevent splashing.
