DENNIS COMMERCIAL VEHICLES. The All-British Machine.

V That the '{All-British "Dennis commercial motor vehicles are increasing in popularity is very evident, judging by the registration > records, under the Motor Vehicles Act recently passed by the 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 comfortable accommodation for twenty persons, including the driver, and its low load-line presents only one step between the ground and the floor of the vehicle. Fitted with highly efficient vacuum servo four-wheel brakes ensures powerful braking with the least physical effort.' There is.no risk of skidding, even 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 surface. .This type of vehicle is pneumatic tired, and .specially designed for commercial passenger services. In short, it embodies the great knowledge, and experience gaincdi by ■ the Dennis Bros., Ltd., who are reOognised 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 miles to the gallon being obtained with . a full load. The gross carrying capacity of the 30'cwt chassis is.. 43ewt,', which compares more than favourably'with that of a"n s American two-tonner.-' The New.; . Zealand Express Company are sole" agents for all Dennis v-prodncts, and extend a hearty welcbmeyto you to call and inspect the latest models while : you >are attending, the National Dairy Show. Shipments are coming to hand by almost every direct boat,; and while a constant demand' exists ; for these vehicles prompt delivery can be given of any type selected, and standardisation of passenger services with Britain's best motor vehicles can be accomplished with every confidence.
