4. NEW ZEALAND ENGINEEH'S PRIV VATE OPINION OF THE STTJDEBAKER. ' Tub ?ourist Motor Co., Hastings, knowing that we are c'iosely interested in Studobaker motors, have forwarded to us a copy nf a lengthy business letter sent them by Mr. AllaJi 11. M'Lean, the'engineer of their firm, who is at present in Detroit, investigating the claims of tho 1916 models of the great American automobile manufacturers. The Tourist Motor Co. have very courteously given us permission to publish extraota from the fetter, and we extract the following paragraph. as likely to interest owners and prospective owners of Studebaker oars "My honest opinion about the Studebaker car is that it is the best value for money un the American market, and as far as hnisSi and workmanship are concerned it is secoiid to none. 1 consider that wo would be foolish to take up the agency for any higher priced oar that is built here, because if we repaint the Studepaker and equip it with wire wheels it would be equal to the Minerva in appearance and- quietness of running. The engine is the cleauest designed one that I have inspected." It may bo explained that Mr. M'Leau's mission to America Was to secure the agency of a high-priced American car to take tho place of the firm's Silent Knight Minerva agency. There is a good market in Hawke's Bay for the very best car obtainable, regardless of price. Mr. M'l«an's honest opinion regarding the Studebaker is that there is no American car on the market better than the Studebaker at any price. The five-seater touring Studebaker {4-cylinder. 25 h.p.), with electrio self-starter and electric lights, sells in Now Zealand for .£345, tho three-seatcr Studebaker, with same equipment, being priccd at .£335.
