DENNIS COMMERCIAL VEHICLES.

The All-British Machine. That the '"All-British" Dennis Commercial Motor-vehicles are,increasing in. popularity is very evident, judging by"l the registration records under tho Motor, Vehicles Act recently passed by tho New Zealand Government, and we venture to say that, judged on its merits, the new Dennis "G" type low-load-line chassis will completely outclass all other forms -of '■ passenger service vehicles in the near future. This vehicle has a wheel base of lift lOin, and has' been specially designed to carry a bus ; or coach body that will provide com-' fortable ■ accommodation for twenty persons, including the driver, and its low load-line presents only' one step be- ' tween the ground and tho floor, of tho vehicle. Pitted with . highly efficient vacuum servo four-wheel brakes ensures'powerful braking with the least physical effort. There is no risk of skidding, oven at high speeds, and the Vehicle can be brought smoothly to;a standstill in a very short space irrespective of the condition of the road surfaces This type of vehicle is pneumatic tired, and specially designed for commercial passenger., services. In short, it'embodies tho.! great knowledge 'aiid experience gained by the Dennis Bros., Ltd., who are recognised as the Oldest and most widely, known,firm on the commercial side of ; the motor industry. This low-load-line passenger chassis is undoubtedly a sound engineering job, and it has . the unstinted approval of the New Zealand Public Works Department and other users. It is particularly, light on.petrol , consumption, approximately 18 niiles to the gallon being obtained with a full load. The gross carrying capacity of the 30cwt chassis is 43cwt, which compares more than favourably with that of an American two-tonner. The New Zealand Express Company are sole agents for all . Dennis products, and extende a hearty welcome to you to call ; and inspect tho latest models while" you aro attending the National Dairy Show. Shipments are coming to hand by almost evc/y direct boat, and while a. ' constant demand exists for tliieso vehicles prompt delivery can bo given of any type selected, and.standardisa- (- tiori of passenger service's with Britain's best motor vehicles can be accomplished with every confidence.
