Yon wilt observe that, although a very expensive electric lighting equipment is now fitted to the WOLSELEY—-the price is only a little higher than that of last year's model.
Perhaps you haven't seen all our advertisements during the past iow months. For your benefit let us reprint a (ew facte regarding "WOLSELEYS." Tbe Wolseley Company never compete in trials, races, or competitions of any kind—yet they manufacture and sell more cars than any two other firms in England .combined.
In opite of the fact that the Woteeley Company do not indulge in competitions, etc., there are more '"WOLSELEYS" in daily use in Canterbury than any other two makes o£ high-grade cars combined. The reason for this is that tho "WOLSELEY" CAR is sold wholly, sole!}', and squarely on merit alone.
IT IS PRE-EMINENTLY "THE CAR THAT CAN BE DEPENDED ON."
We are having a great run with WOLSELEYS just now, and in anticipation of a still better demand, have just pieced a large order foi more cars. Unfortunately, when we have sold the two cars mentioned above, wo will not bo able to deliver for a few months. Therefore, the best advice wo can offer you ia "If you want tho car with a reputation for faithful eervico, get in caTly with yonr order, and enap up one of these models now arriving by the Ruapehu."
