By gad sir!

Sir,

I really must protest at your ridiculous sweeping statement in the usually-brilliant magazine Motor Sport, to the effect that Mercedes-Benz is the best car in the world! Surely I have the 100% backing of enthusiasts everywhere when I say that there is only one car in the world worthy of this impressive title? How unpatriotic can you get? Mercedes-Benz is a very good car, that much I will concede, but surely you cannot compare it with “The Best Car in the World “! By the way, Mr. Editor, if you haven’t yet worked out which car I’m referring to, I suggest you write a letter to the following address: “The Works of the Best Car in the World, England.’ I’m sure even the most humble postman will know where to send it!

Ashford. G. FAULKNER.

[But supposing I write a letter to “The Works of the Best Car in the World, Germany ” ?—ED.]
