THE ECONOMICAL MOTOE-215 MILES ON 1 GALLONS OF PETROL, Last Friday, at 4.50, Mr. S. E. Stedman arrived at our Christchurch garage in his 10-23-h.p. Humber Car from Dunadin. Mr". Stedman left Dunedin (where he is ; agent for Humber Cars) on his annual" business trip to Christchurch, at G. 20 a.m., and maintained an average speed 1 throughout the journey of oW 25 miles; per hour. The Humber Car weighs 18cwtj fully equipped for the road, and has already done over 11,000 miles without a! mechanical stop. The petrol consump-j tion was worked out carefully by Mr. 0.1 J. Wilson, of Invercargill, who occora-i panied Mr. Stedman, and it records 301 miles to a gallon. On a gallon of lubri-l eating oil the Humber runs 1700 miles,-! and the running cost approximates three' guineas for 1000 miles. These ore facts, 1 proved and certified by Mr. 'Wilson. There is no need to say more. Mr. Stedman is now ait our garage, with the car. that did the trip, and will be pleased to give trial trips.
