20 HP. 10,000 MILES TEST CAR.

X5840
X5770

We expect the continuation of the 10,000 miles test on this car will commence on Thursday and we will let you have the usual daily report sheets.

The reason for the delay is that since this car went away certain modifications have been incorporated in the 115 chassis in 'O' series, and these are being carried out on this car before the test starts.
