The following . is an extract -from our Auckland agent's letter, dated sth January: ''We thought it might be of interest to you to know that all the Overland and Hupp Christmas touring parties .went through their trips without mechanical stops of any description, while some of the high priced English cars were left on the road. Mr Hardy arrived back with his 40 horse power | TORPEDO OVERLAND early this morning, after completing a t\ventyihour non-stop run,." Surely no further proof is required of the reliabil- *~ ity and absolute dependability these fine little, cars'. And not only ■are ,thiey* thoroughly reliable, but they are also the lowest priced cars at present on the market.. The Overland is 'obtainable at from £275 to £550, and tJie Hupp from £225 to £3lO. Ease of «oatrol and the simplicity of handing are among the other good q,uailtties of these ears which should commend them, not only to the novice but also to the experienced motorist. If you intend purchasing a car this year inquire about either of these. * It will pay you. Full particulars and catalogues wil be sent on receipt of your nome and address by A'.
