chassis is a production model, with a body specially
built by Thrupp and Maberly, Ltd., to His Highness's
special requirements, being designed primarily for game
hunting. It accommodates four persons in all; the front
seats are adjustable and the accommodation at the rear
consists of a double-seated dickey, with ample legroom,

use of guns. Continued...
