Care for Sale 1 ~~ . , ■■ 7 SKODA NEWS FLASH! ! Hullo Folk, The news for today, of course, is the continuing success story of Eric Sides’s new Skodas. Thev are selling like hot cakes. I have looked back over the last few sales and noted lust who is buying new Skodas. Architects, bank officers, contractors, music , teachers, printers, purchasing officers, draughtsmen, wholesalers, engineers. headmasters, school teachers, housewives, doctors and retired folk. Surely a hroad spectrum of discerning Kiwis who appreciate real value. One lady came in and was very impressed with the new Skoda, but was a little apprehensive. She went home and unknown to us. she rang a very knowledgeable friend (a toll to Auckland), and in no time she was back to purchase her new car. She told us her adviser was an airline pilot, used to piloting DClOs and Jumbo jets. He said: "I have a i new Skoda myself and have done 30.000 km odd in mine. They are a j wonderful car. ■ Get in before any price rise.” Then yesterday, 1 was rung 1 and asked to go to quite an influential person’s home, and he told me he had been talking to his garage and the mechanic said: ‘‘You just can’t do better than buying a Skoda — they are a good car and great value.” ! Then so many more people buy Skodas, because their friends have been | so pleased with their Skodas. Others come and ask us. and of course we I are very enthusiastic to show them all the marvellous features, but it is j not until we put them behind he wheel and let them “test drive” a new : Skoda for themselves that they really get turned on. They can’t believe the amazing performance and the five-seater ample and luxury roominess. | Then there are others who need to be certain that they get the best value for their life’s savings, so they ask the experts at the Automobile Associa- i tion Technical Services, and they give Skoda a great report. Some of you may have some reserves, or “hang ups,” still — well I would like to meet you. My Skoda is ail fitted up with a mass of extras, such as viny] roof, mag wheels, body mould, cassette player, tow bar, underseal, electric rear demister, etc., and I shall be delighted to come out to your home any time (but a Sunday), and talk to you and give you a free, n.o nonsense, no obligation, demonstration. I can advise you on how best you can arrange finance, discuss your present older car and tell you what we would trade it in for on a brand new Skoda, and generally enable you to benefit from 33 years active service on the motor repair and sales industry. Other people say to me: “We think it is wonderful to be able to come and talk to you personally and to see you in your overalls, helping to gel our new car ready.” Then further to this we are so keen to keep our Skoda buyers absolutely delighted with their cars that we welcome them back for servicing or for any assistance we can give. The. other day I met a lady and her husband who had recently plrchased a new Skoda and was making some suggestions to them when she said: "You know, we didn’t think anybody cared anymore, especially once they had our money.” I replied: “Well, I like taking your money all right, but I like better to be available personally and see you are very happy with your new car.” Another thing that amazes some people is just how keen our new Skodas are to get into the harness and pull a small caravan, boat or trailer, etc. They are a real workhorse. Let us show you just how keen. I must conclude with the main virtues of our Eric Sides, 1978 Skoda SIIOL. New price $4698. Completely registered, tow bar, radio, body moulds, underseal, electric rear demister, etc. $5OOO (approx.). You must agree, this is fantastic buying. Lively, hard-working, trouble-free motor and transmission. 1100 c.c., 4-door, 5-seater (not a small car), reclining seats, folds to single or double bed. 40 m.p.g., plenty of luggage room, rust-proofed, radial tyres, disc brakes, seat belts, mudflaps, sound-proofed, child’s safety locks'on doors, locking tank cap, outside mirror. Come on. folk. We’re not talking — this is for real. Just the greatest car value ever offered, and the days are numbered (only stocks left for a limited period). You owe it to yourself to test drive a new Skoda SIIOL today and you’ll smile on through 1978 in a brand new car of your own. Your*bank manager will smile too because you’ll have $2OOO more left in the bank than if you bought any other similar sized car. Come along. See you soon. Your main city Skoda man, ERIC SIDES.
