W/S. C. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} re Bentley V's. Thank you for your note ref., C.7/C.4.2.41, I do not think that at the moment any useful purposes would be served by having more than seven B.V's in use. If, at a later date, someone who could be very helpful to the Chassis Division, were to express a desire to have a B.V., we might be justified in completing another car.
