NERACAR
SAFETY
FIRST."
For safety. Reliability, Strength, Cleanliness and Economy the NERAQAR” stands unrivalled.
The "NERACAR" was not built; for excessive speed. On plain level roads, it will give a speed of 35 miles, whilst on hills such as the Chin Wan Hill -it will givs a speed of 25 miles per hour, as proved, in the recent trials, Considering that nest people, rarely go motoring at more than 30 miles on evel roads or 20 miles up hills, the "NERACAE has a reserve speed which is quite ample.
The "NERACAR was specially designed and built « to meet the needs of people who, in their daily avocations. and pleasures, find that what is really required is a reliable, fair priced, light-two-wheeled motor car that will carry them about safely, 'economically, at a fair speed and without the risk of having their clothing soiled by dirt, graase and' oil. The "NERACAR" answers all these requirements and its gasoline consumption is one gallon to 100 miles!
