A WARNING to the Government riconcerning old vehicles still in service because of restrictions in the supply of new ones was given by Sir George Kenning, chairman and managing director of Kennings, Ltd., at the company's annual meeting at Sheffield.
Pre-war vehicles, although patched for so many years, were now rapidly reaching the stage when further patching was not only uneconomic, but impracticable. Many of these vehicles were not fit to be on the road. The country's motor factories were not working to capacity, although their products were vital not only to the export drive, but to• the home market. The reduction in the number of cars for the home market was serious, but the cut in the supply of commercial vehicles was even more regrettable.
