Many people have —people who buy cars costing from four to eight thousand dollars usually spend more in a few years than the owners of a Rolls-Royce. Why? Because the average "good” car depreciates in value 40 per cent the first year. Ten years of usage finds it practically valueless—if it has not been junked before! But a Rolls-Royce, after ten years, is worth at least 50 per cent of its first cost —and even then it is good for twenty or more years of service. No one knows the length of service of a Rolls-Royce because none has ever worn out. Few, even, are ever resold. Ten years ago 346 Rolls- Royce cars were owned in New York City. Some were eight years old. Today 274 are still in the hands of the original owners, and will be for j years to come. Let us demonstrate the perfect riding comfort of a Rolls-Royce in a 100-mile trial trip, arranged at your convenience.
