Motor Car Value For The Money
W
E FIND this is the attitude o many
people who come into our salesroom
before they know anything about the
MaxwelL
Jr&l
Jl
. -ri
.
Not until the Maxwell is shown and iriemoo
strated to them until they sit in it and gramme
the finish until they ride in it or perhaps not
until they drive it themselves, do they realize what
a tremendous value is offered in the MazweQ car.
It is not unusual that Maxwell value should
not be known to everyone, because it h uncom
mon to find such a car for a good margin more
than the Maxwell price.
The Maxwell stands absolutely alone in a highly
competitive field, for the amount of value it offers
for the price.
Appearance' The fines of the Maxwell are
decidedly attractive. There is no break in the
contour from the radiator to the back of the car.
The fenders are gracefully shaped. All motal
parte are enameled or nickel-plated. The uphol
stery is deep and well-finished. From any angle
t is a, car that the owner can be proud of.
Motor The engine in the Maxwell car is not
equalled by any other four-cylinder engine of its
aize. And we know of larger and more expensive
cars that have lees able power plants. The Max
well engine carriea its load through mud and sand
or over the steepest grades without a falter.
Qgality -The materials in the Maxwell car;
are the beat that can be bought and the workman
ship that turns them into finished parts la no less
excellent It is only the large production of the
Maxwell factories that makes it possible to put
such quality of materials and workmanship into
car selling at the Maxwell price.
Economy With its other attractive features
the Maxwell is a most economical car to own.
Owners get 22 to 25 miles per gallon of gasoline
and 8,000 to 12,000 miles per set of tires. And
the car is so durably built that repair expense is
negligible.
We are sure you want a car such as we have
described the Maxwell to be. If you will give ns ,
a few minutes of your time we are sure we can
convince you that the Maxwell Car is an except
tional value. Come in today.
