VAL2/ETS.8/38 I think the best thing would be to send this car direct to Derby, as it can then be examined to see if there is anything which points to negligence. As regards the cost, this naturally will be more expensive but it will no doubt be well offset by the fact that we will not be sending you the necessary parts, with duty, etc. Will you please arrange accordingly.
