7-GOSHAWK-11. X 4086
AMATEUR TEST.

As you are most probably aware, 7-Goshawk-11 car is going to be run in France by people who are supposed to be Amateur Drivers. We have told them that if anything goes wrong with the car, they should first apply to you for help. We do not wish to have to send a man to France because they have forgotten to turn the petrol on. If anything serious happens, of course, we shall have to send a man with the necessary parts.

I attach herewith a Wiring Diagram of the Goshawk Car which may be of help to you in case of any trouble.

Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
