M'Leun, chief engineer and a' director of the Tourist Motor Company, Hawke's Bay, agents for some years past for Silent Knight Minerva and Studebaker motors, recently went to America with the intention of securing the agency of one of the real top-notch American cars, whatever the prico. Hegives.his impressions and the result of his investigations in a letter to us, from which the following is an extract:- I have examined practically _ all the leading American cars, my intention being to secure the agency for a high-priced automobile But after seeing the new Studebaker motors being riding in one of them, and thoroughly investigating them, I considor it a waste; of time to look for (something better which cannot bo found. _ . . . The new Studebaker engmo is tho cleanest motor manufactured in America. Its power is a revelation, and the material is sccond to none. For quietness it is equal to the Silent Knight Minerva. All the improvements, without exception, which were considered necessary from our' previous experience, have boen incorporated in this new Studebaker, and I could not find a single detail that I could suggest as an improvement. ... The starter and lighting equipment is, in my estimation, the 6implest and most reliable made. ... The bodywork this vcar is excellent, and the cabrotolet ond limousine are magnificent pieces of work, equal in finish and- appearance to any of the Minerva cars that we have imported." We need only add that the' price of the 1916. Studebaker 4-cylinder touring car is i 345, and of the 4-cjlinder 3-seater roadster, ,£333. Adams, Ltd., N.Z.
