AN ANNOUNCEMENT. We have to announce that the second series of 1916 "Studebaker" cars are now on their way to New Zealand, per 0.0. Pakeha, from Montreal, due -to arrive shortly. These cars ootne from the Canadian assembling and finishing branch, Walkerrille, Ontario and are remarkable for their exceptionally fine finish, necessitated by the demands of the overseas Studebaker trade. Many valuable detail improvements are incorporated in the second series models, one of the most noteworthy of these being the provision of independent and separately adjustable front seats of tho "bucket" type, together with adjustable nedals. This refinement should especially'appeal to the lady driver or the exceptionally tall or short man, whose comfort is not adequately provided for by the usual fixed, dimensions in the front of the car. Another important modification is the relegation of the petrol tank to the rear of the car, and the provision of a very effl3ieut vacuum feed to carburetter. There are many minor modifications and improvements, all designed to add to the comfort and convenience of both driver and passengers, while in appearance th« car is handsomer than ever. The new Btudebakers will be on view at Studebaker Agencies shortly, and all interested in the latest developments m American automobile design are invited'to inspect them Adams Ltd., New Zealand Distributors of Studebaker Motors, Christchurch. —Advt.
POWER, ECONOMY, COMFORT, STYLE. ' Those four all-important features are found in vara combination in tho "Cherrolet" "Four-Ninety." First there is its famous valve-in-head motor, with many advantages, even over other motors of this type. This means about 20 per cent, greater efficiency, which shows In power delivered and in fuel economy. Next, the selective sliding gear transmission, with three speeds ahead, similar to highpriced cars. Then comes correct car weight to engine power, giving perfect balance: comfort, secured through a roomy body, ample upholstery, and cantilever springs, and Auto-lite two-unit electric starting and lighting system, built in the car, and guaranteed, not a makeshift added as an afterthought. Then last, but not least, a car of distinctive design, graceful, with a handsome streamline effect from Radiator to tail lamp. Ring or write THE DOMINION MOTOR VEHICLES.
