In view of the fact that we are shortly to delete the self-adjusting tappets on the Phantom III, I thought you might be interested in reading the attached cutting from last week's Autocar, in case you did not happen to see it.

The last paragraph is especially interesting coming from probably a well informed member of the Autocar personnel.
