PLYMOUTH THE CAR THAT STANDS UP BEST ™ ! GREY CABS (3 lines) Service Courtesy Economy Messrs. Todd Motors Ltd., Wellington. 74 Courtenay PI. Wellington, C. 3. May 95th, 1937 Dear Sirs, ftct (h>t we have a fleet of seventeen Plymouth and Chrysler cars is proof that wc consider them the ideal car for taxi work. The main features required in a motor car for our work are: low running costs, long engine life, and efficient braking system, and we are satisfied that Chrysler products have all these features. . Figures supplied by our owner drivers show that the efficient engine life of a Plymouth car is between 70,000 and 80,000 miles before rebormg is necessary, after which it is again like new. The average petrol consumption on taxi work around townw 18 to 19 miles per gallon, and on long trips 21 to 22 miles per gallon. r gauun, auu uu » t Oil consumption is light, no additional oil being required between oil changes during the first 20,000 miles of the engine's life. 5 aurnig uic ursi -suiuw vi. u»v v. The safety of our patrons must necessarily be our first considerition, and it is our considered opinion that the Lockheed hydraulic brakes as used on Chrysler cars is the most efficient and trouble free braking system yet designed. Though the initial cost is a little more than for some other cars the Plymouth and Chrysler are, on account of their sturdy construction and long life, easily the cheapest over a period of years. Yours faithfully, GREY CABS. (Signed) J. V.
