CHATER ROAD,

In ONE CARH

Every worth while improvement known to motoring-is built into this brilliant Lanchester; to give you safer, smoother, speedier riding. The most scandalous pot- holes are glossed over by its independent front wheel springing. Curves cambered the wrong way are rounded without sway or slide-thanks to a low centre of gravity and anti-roll control. Other traffic is left far behind after a hold-up--for this Lanchester has a high power-weight ratio. And its Daimler fluid flywheel trans- mission makes slow driving jerk-proof, and gear-changing fool-proof. We have one of these Lanchesters to show you. Examine it carefully. Test it thoroughly. Not only for its performance, but also for its superb workmanship and finish.
