re 22-G-V.{VIENNA}

Referring to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}19/KW.9.10.36 saying that this car has now been fitted with low rating front road springs and roll rod, I cannot quite understand what this car has been doing during the last two or three months.

The last report I can find is dated the 10th July and says that the car was being taken to Paris Depot for attention to rear shock dampers and return to Chateauroux. Daily mileage discontinued and experimental work will be carried out on it.

What I am wondering is what has been happening during the last three months?
