THE DAILY COST OF MOTORING. HOW TO SAVE MONEY. As the motor car is coming into daily use it should "be necessary for owners and others to carefully consider the running ooste for oil. In the early days of motor cars the cost of oil waa a secondary consideration, bnt to-day it is proved by the recent trials that many. of the cars are petrol-eaters. There is a considerable daily saving to be made by motorists driving cars which, are proved by official teat to be economical in fuel consumption. It will bo surprising to the public to be made aware of some of the facts in reference to the petrol test on the second day of the Reliability Trial organised by the Canterbury Automobile Association. The distance run on the petrol test day was 143 miles, and reckoning petrol at eighteen pence a gallon (Christchurch price) s the official figures of the Association prove that certain care consumed the astonishing amount of over ■eighteen, shillings' worth of petrol for the 148 .miles. By the -way of comparison and to show the daily saving urircash, we point to the Talbot team. Tixo 15 Talbot, the winner of the petrol -prize, used under eight ehilJjings , -worth of petrol, showing a clear saying of ovetf ten shillings on one day's trip. The 10-16 French Talbot used six and ninejyence -worth. The 25 Talbot used nine ehillinge , worth, while the remaining 15 Talbot used, nine and fourpence worth, all the Talbot team being fully loaded with four passengers. The Talbot team was awarded first, second and third prizes for highest aggregate marks for reliability, petrol consumption, and hill clirrabine. Adams, Ltd., 138 and 140 High street, .Christchurch. 6
