| 261 S.S. RAYMOND MAYS EASTGATE HOUSE BOURNE LINCOLNSHIRE TELEPHONE: BOURNE 17 July 22nd, 1937. Mr. Robotham, Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Mr. Robotham, I have been in communication with Mr. Sidgreaves and have made arrangements to deliver my car to your works at Derby on Monday next the 26th inst. This car has now exceeded 40,000 miles and has really behaved amazingly well under the most strenuous conditions. I feel that the car should have a little general attention now and I have mentioned several points to Mr. Sidgreaves, a copy of which I understand he will be sending to you. I shall greatly appreciate your personal attention in this matter as I particularly want the car to be in perfect condition before going over to the Swiss Grand Prix in about two weeks time. Thanking you, Yours sincerely, Raymond Mays | ||
