HAWKES, Limited. THE "VALUE FOR MONET' CAR SPECIALISTS. Royal Garage, Ghristchurch AND Culverden Supreme Sunbeams THE SUNBEAM COMPANY now told *1» the World'e Speod Eecords from 5 miles to 1000 miles, and from 1 hour to 13 hours. Of particular interest ia the fact that the SUNBEAM holds the long distance records against aU-com«TB, as it is self-evident that only a car of the very highest grade is capable of sustaining the tremendous speed of nearly 90 miles per hour for 13 consecutive hours. Should there be tho slightest flaw in ite construction anywhere, a_ test such as that would be dead sure to find it out. The SUNBEAM has just added to ite lons list of successes, β-nd proved it* superiority ovex others (if each proof were now necessary) by winning tho TOURIST TROPHY RACE, of 600 miles, held in the lele of Man. This race ie the chiof rootcr-cer road raoe of England, and the principal condition attached to it is that all cars entered moet bo standard ordinary touring models, fully equipped—the eanio ac the car sold to the general public. The race wa* won by a standard touring model SUNBEAM, which covered the 600 miles at a> epoed just under 60 niilee per hour. We don't say th*at because the SUNBEAM is pre-eminent in speed contests it ie the most desirable car to own, but we do assert that because the SUNBEAM a capable of annexing and holding WORLD'S SPEED RECORDS for long distance events, thus proving itself the best car at high epeeds, it must therefore be the best car at any epeed.
