Ws have made I)ig claims for thp Stud©* baknr'car on the score of its reliability, its simpWKiy, and th« ease with which it can b® driven. Tlie following'letter, addressed to us by Mr. R. Cowper, surgeondentist, of this city, demonstrates the kind of service.the Studebakei vill give in tha hands of an owner who WO had comparatively little driving experience Mr. Cowper purchased a Studebaker car inz\ us on November 80th Inst, and his firei lengthy tour was one in tlie island tlurin o, the recent Christmas and rse\* Year "holidays. Concerning his experiences on-tLat tour, Mr. Cowper writes:— "Just a few lines to tell ,you how thoroughly satisfied I am with my Studebaler car. As you know, 1 took it away with me to the North Island, and went in all about 1200 miles, over all the big hills up in the north. Going from Wellington through to Napier over the Rimutakas, across to Palmeraton, Wanganui, and New Plymouth, and back to Welling- > ton over the famous Paekakariki Hill, the car took all the big lulls with the greatest ease, and did not give mo , tha slightest anxiety. All that distanco It was not touched by anyone save to give it petrol and oil, and we did nor. even have i 0 nut wind into the tyre 3. You will bs surprised to hear that I brought the cal over the Zig-zag from LyttoKon io Sum* ner, which says something fit the caf and the wav you taught me to drive.* The Studebaker driven by Mr. Cnwpet was, of course, equipped with electricj <elf-staTter and electric lights. The new 191G model Studebakers will be to hand shortly, a first shipment being expected next. week. The prices of the new models are:—2s h.p. five-seater (including electric' self-starter, electric lights, and full road equipment), 2345; 25 h.p. tbree-seater (same equipment), <£335. They jre even better than the 1915 model, which has given such magnificent satisfaction to all purchasers. Adams, Ltd., N.Z. Importers of Studebaker Motors, Chri6tohurch, Palmerston North, Wanganui..
