HC Deb 08 November 1949 vol 469 cc114-5W
98. Wing-Commander Hulbert

asked the Minister of Supply how many 1949 model Humber Pullman saloons have been supplied for the use of Ministers since 1st January; and what is the total value of these motor cars, including Purchase Tax, and their average petrol consumption.

Mr. J. Jones

Six cars of this type have been supplied. The average petrol consumption is 14 miles to the gallon. The list price of these six cars, including Purchase Tax, is £13,029, but the hon. Member will appreciate that this is not the price paid by the Ministry of Supply.
