ew Zealand Owners of Essex Motor Cars wrote these enthusiastic letters "we we must write and express to you the satisfaction we fed with the performance of our car." We have just had occasion to renew one of the plugt in the Essex Car we purchased from you in September of 1924. At we have done cloie on 19,000 miles during this period, we mutt write and express to you the satisfaction we feel with the performance of this car. It is the first plug to give any trouble, and only once have we had reason to get the engine overhauled, which, to our mind, it quite a record. "— the Essex has no equal" I am writing you this unsolicited testimonial in praise of the Essex Six. I hate been using my Car for passenger and mail car work for 12 months on one of the Worst roads in N.Z., with a grade of 1 in A, and the front axle grading the road.

FARLEY. 26.4 miles per gallon—which I consider good for a closed car: My Essex has now completed 10,000 miles; in fact, the figure is 10,230. In the above distance there has not been a single fracture of any part, either small or large—not even a spring leaf. I have made one or two minor replacements, costing, perhaps, 155., not because the car needed them, but because I am perhaps too " fussy " about small details. " 32.4 miles per gallon."
