§ Mr. Anthony GrantExtended testing is essential to the production of safe, reliable and economical motor vehicles, but I am sure that vehicle manufacturers will make all possible economies in carrying out their testing programmes.
Chrysler Ltd. does not visualise that its test facility at Bruntingthorpe will be in full use earlier than mid-1974.
