This scheme results in a complete cure of the rattles on 20/25 HP. cars and of about 50% in the case of the Bentley. We shall be glad to hear whether there is any objection to our applying these schemes to existing cars as and when required, as we are anxious to be able to deal with outstanding complaints as soon as possible.
