Wo have made T>lg claims Tor the PtudebaW'car on the score of its reliability, its simplicity, apd the ease .with whioh it can be driven. The tallowing letter, addressed ti us by Mr. B. Cowper, surgeondentist, of this city, demonstrates the kind of service the Studebaker will, give in tho hands of an owner who has had comparatively little driving experience. Mr. tow per purchased a Studebaker oar from us oil November 30th. last, ■ and This first tenirthv tour was one in the Worth Island durinE the recent Christmas and Neve Year holidays. Concerning his esperiences on tUt tour, Mr. Cowperwrites "Just a few lines to tell you how thorou4.lt satisfied I am with my . Stude-' b-Eer car. As you know, l took it, away with me to the North Island, and went in nil about 1200 miles, over all the big bills up in the north. Gojng irom Wellington through to Napier over the Einiu-. takas, across to Palmers,*®, Wnnganui, tin.l New Plymouth, niidbackto W-elhiiff-trm nvor the famous Paekakariki Hill, To St took all the big hills with the greatest ease, and did not give-mo the Slightest anxiety. All that distance it was not touched by .anyone save to give it petrol and oil, and we'did not even have to put wind into the tyres. You will be surprised to hear that 1 brought the car over the Zig-zag from Lyttelton to Sumnor, which says something for the car and the way you taught me to drive. The Studebaker driven by Mr. Omvper was, of course, equipped with electric *clf-sturter and electric lighto. The new 191G model Studebakers will be to hand ' shortly, a first shipment being expected next week. The prices of the now models are —25 li-P- five-seater (including electric Bolf-starter electric lights, and full road equipment)', <£315; 25 h.p throe-seater . (<»nio equipment), <£330. ihey are even better than tho 1015 model, which has fiveii such magnificent satisfaction to all purchasers. Adorns, Ltd., N.Z.
