Tue fourist Motor Co., Hastings, knowtng that we are closely interested in Studcbaker motors-, have forwarded to us a copy of a lengthy business letter sent them by Mr: Aliaii U. M'Lean, tbe GII- - of their firm, who is at present in Detroit, investigating the claims of tho 19lii models of the great American auto, mobile manufacturers. The Tourist Motor Co. have very 'courteously, given us permission to publish extracts from „tho fetter, and we extract the following-.para-graph as likely. to interwt owners and prospective owners of Studcbaker cars:— "My honest, opinion' about the Studebakor car is that it is the best value for money on the American market, and as far as hnis'ii nnd workmanship aire concerned it is second to none. 1 consider that" we . would ; be foolish to take-up the-agency ' for anv higher- priced car thiit is built here, because if we repaint the Stud©, baker''and equip it" with wire wheels. It wov.ld be equal to the Minerva in nppearanco and quietness of running. Tho'ennine is the cleanest designed one that I 1 Rave inspected." It may be explained that Mr. M'Loan's mission to America was to secure the agency of a high-priced American car to lake H-e ; place of",the (inn's Silent Knight Minerva agency. There is a good market in HawkeV Bay for the very best car obtainable, regardless of prici. Mr. M'l-ean's honest opinion regarding the Studcbaker is that there j Is no American car on the market better ' than the Studcbaker at any price. The live-sealer touring Studebaker !t-cv|inder 25 h.p.),"with electric sclf-:-t:.rler aiul eleotric lights, sells in NewZeaiand for .£345, Che three-seater Studcbaker, with same equipment, bein» priced at 4:335.
