BENTLEY V.{VIENNA} ---------- C tells us that you are about to send a Corniche Model B.V. to France for test. Several of us here would like to see the body. Is it possible to give us the opportunity of doing so by arranging for the car to call at Lillie Hall on its way to France? It need only spend an hour at Lillie Hall if we can be told beforehand just when to expect it there. Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} --- | ||
