sseggEHtfiHßEßnßAs^^ IMR. W. J. LEMON, Kilim- , chy, Canterbury, writes: ‘ ‘ Seventeen years ago I purchased a Studebaker from you .which gave such satisfaction that I bought another. I am much impressed with the riding qualities of the new Studebaker and I think it should last me for the next 20 years. Petrol 1 and oil consumption are very light indeed, and during the past three years I have had no mechanical stops, breakages, or renewal of parts. ’ ’ 2 MR. JOHN DEROLES, .Carlton Avenue, Palmerston North, writes: “I have had my Studebaker car now for nearly four years and during that time it has been in practically daily use. I have never had the slightest trouble with the car and it is the easiest riding car I have been in. “I have found it economical in running and exceptionally easy starting. A point that .strikes me very forcibly when driving the car is its wonderful easy steering, and my repair, bill has been practically nil. 3 MR. W. G. IVEL, Quee* , St., Auckland, writes: “I think you have the best car on the market for tha money. 1 “My Studebaker has given me far more service than I ever expected. I have had no repair expenses and have continually averaged 19 miles to the gallon. As a hill climber; its performance is remarkable. ’ ’ 4, MR. L. W. PACKMAN, 36 , Trafalgar Street, Timaru, writes: “I have just completed 4,000 miles with my Erskine car and up to the present I have not spent Id. on repairs. I took a five hundred mile trip at Xmas time and over the whole distance my petrol consumption worked out at just over 23 miles to the gallon, including short runs; stopping and starting.” 5 MR. A. KIDD, Palmerston .North, writes: “The Erskine-Studebaker Car I bought from your firm about 12 months ago is a wonderful little car. It is very comfortable even on a rough road, and steers very easily. “The benzine consumption is from 24-25 miles per gallon, which I think takes some beating for a six-cylinder car. I cannot speak too highly of my Erskine, which is everything one can expect in a modern motor car. Studebaker Championship performance is without equal, and is endorsed by the opinions of prominent people throughout N. Z. No other car holds so many speed and endurance records as Studebaker. No other car offers so many improvements. gas m New 1929 prices: New 1929 Studebaker Erskine Six Sedans from - £370 6 MR. L. C. RYAN, Manager .Rotorua Motor Transport Co., writes: “I wish to express my approval of the three Straight Eight Studebaker President Sedans which we recently purchased. They are giving every satisfaction as regards both comfort, reliability, and running expenses. These cars bring our fleet up to 16, which fact should be highly pleasing to you as Agents for these cars. “The first Studebakers we received, in 1923, are still running well, although they have done considerable mileage, getting dose to the 100,000 mark. The upkeep of these cars has been exceptionally light, aagd they have had practically no-re-placements. The body work is sjSH in first class order. These facts speak volumes for the material and workmanship of the manufacturers. “Studebakers have proved so reliable and satisfactory, there is no doubt that our fleet of these cars will, in the near future, be further increased.” 7 MR. J. M. DICK, Logan .Terrace, Auckland, writes: you pass on the street stop and give the Erskine Six Sedan a second look. I have driven the car 2,000 miles and averaged 25 miles to the gallon.” MR. J. B. BORTEWICK, .J.P., Christchurch, writes: “During the 13 months that I have had the Erskine it has given me every satisfaction, and I have not spent any money on mechanical repairs. I have kept a careful check on petrol consumption, which works out at 22 miles to the gallon.” MR. W. C. BARRETT, .Winchester, near Timaru, writes:, “lam perfectly satisfied with the Director Victoria I bought from you fourteen months ago. I wouldn’t change her for any other. She has travelled 5,000 miles, and I find everything that could be desired for comfort.” mr. j. McClelland, I, Christchurch, writes: “I have been a Studebaker owner for the past years during which time I have bought two cars from you. The Special Six that I am now using, I have driven for the past 3|- years, and it is as good as new. The car has been without mechanical fault all this time, and has been running without a hitch over rough country roads, carrying heavy loads and occasionally as many as eight people. I have not taken much notice of petrol consumption but on a recent run from Christchurch to Dunedin, I averaged 23 miles to the gallon, which I think is exceptionally good for such a powerful car.” New 1929 Ball-Bearing Spring Shackle.
