With reference to C6/C27.11.33. I am sorry that our memos crossed. If Lord Herbert Scott does not want to be bothered with controllable dampers for the time being, and will let us know, we will send off at once a pair of standard springs for the rear. If his present springs were fitted at 'N' since the car left the works, will you please give us their poundage corresponding to the buffer clearances mentioned in Br's note.
