\ NEW ZEALAND ENGINEER'S PKIY VTE OPINION OF THE STUDEIiAKEE. T'c Tourist Motor Co., Hastings, knowtn» tlint wo are closely interested in Studcbaker motors, have forwarded to ua a COPT of a Tcugtliy business letter sent tkera 'by Mr. All.it, n. ll'Lean, tie engineer of their firm, who is at present in Detroit, investigating the claims of the 1916 models of the great American automobile manufacturers. The Tourist Motor Co. havo very courteously given us permission to publislf. extracts from tha letter, and we extract the following paragraph. as likely to interest owners and prospective owners of.Studcbaker cars "lly lioDest opinion about tho Studebaker car is that it is tho best value for money on the American market, and as far as tiniA and workmanship are concerned it is second to none. I consider that wo would be foolish to take up the agency for any higher priced car that is built here because if we repaint tike Studo* baker and equip it with wire, wheels it would bo equal to the Minerva m appearance and quietness of running. The en. L'ine is the cleanest designed one that I havo inspected." It may be explained that Mr. M'Lean's mission to America was to secure tho agency of a high-priced American car to take the place of tha firm's Silent Knight Minerva agency. There is a good market m Tiawke'a Ba;\ for the very lx>st car obtainable, regard ' less of price. Mr. M'Lean's honest opin* ion' regarding the Studebaker is that there is no American car 011 the market better than the Studebaker at any price. Tho live-seater touring Studebaker (l-cyl:nderc 25 li.p.), with electric eelf-starter and electric lights, sells in New Zealand for «C 345, Die threc-seater Studcbaker, with same equipment, being priced at .£335.
