MORRIS MOTORS LTD, By appointment to H.R.H. The Prince of Wales. -■'iv m m > \ HEADS N.Z. SALES Not by chance, but by sheer merit, Morris takes its place at the head of New Zealand car sales, for all makes and all horse-powers. In the same way Morris cars are winning their way to a position of pre-eminence in every country where they are introduced. For in sheer value, in comfort, in economical performance, and in long life they have no rival. m TLN* ew Ideally suited for New Zealand conditions and complete in every detail, the new Morris-Cowley at f.o.b. prices from £295 has more horse-power per pound of weight than any other English car on the New Zealand Market. Its economical performance is phenomenal. Any ordinary driver can get 30 miles per gallon from its exceptionally lively 14-32 h.p. motor.

The Morris figures were more than 16 per cent, greater than those of the car placed second. For this I would like , to thank sincerely the motorists of New Zealand. “The pre-eminent position of Morris Cars is all the more gratifying in view of the fact that to-day, not only is there a greater variety of cars sold than ever before, but motor-cars generally have reached a higher pitch of efficiency than at any previous time in the history of automobile manufacture. “To-day’s motorist is a canny buyer and a shrewd judge of car value. Very little escapes him, and the general preference shown for Morris products is a fair indication of their value. World Leadership in Overseas Markets, “The success of Morris Cars in New Zealand is a repetition of what is happening at Home and Abroad. The percentage of Morris products sold overseas is now considerably greater than is the export percentage of any foreign factory. Moreover, the Morris export for the period September 1931 to February 1932 inclusive, was 50 per cent, greater than the corresponding period of the previous season. 7 out of 10 selected Morris. “During the three month’s period following the announcement of the 1932 season’s programme Morris Cars, delivered in the Home market, represented no less than 43 per cent, of the total of Ministry of Transport registrations for that period. For the horse-power classes in the 1932 Morris range the corresponding figure of Morris Cars delivered in the Home market was in excess of 72 per cent. In other words roughly 7 out of every 10 buyers selected Morris. No “Mass-Production”. “It should be born in mind that Morris Cars are not ‘mass-produced’. Each workman has ample time for his job, and the care exercised at every stage of manufacture is no whit inferior to that associated with factories devoted to the production of luxury automobiles on a one-at-a-time basis.” BUY BRITISH AND BE PROUD OF IT!
