A letter from E C Gordon England published in Autocar 1926…
David Howe writes:
A letter from EGE in Autocar Oct 22nd 1926 saying he had taken a
Chummy from his stock and tested it. The letter is very complimentary.
Note also the date, just before the Motor Show when sales peaked. He
is doing his bit to help Austin sales and no doubt his part in those
sales.
