If you’d Mce to get around the high cost of hv- mg, we have o suggestion Cut down on the high cost of getting around And buy a Volkswagen It's only $1 7 9 9 * That s around $1200 less than the average amount paid for a new cor today Heave it m the bank. More's coming 1 A VW saves you hundreds of dollars on upkeep over the years It takes pints, not quarts, of Oil Not one iota of antifreeze And it gets about 27 miles to the gallon. The average car (thirsty devil that it is) only gets 14. So the more you drive, the more you save. And chances ore, you'M drive it for years and years. (Since we never change the style, a VW never goes out of style.) Of course, a VW’s not much to look at. So a lot of people buy a big flashy cor just to save face. Try putting that in the bank. i $ 1 § 1 LeRoy Cannon Motors South Church Street Extension GREENVILLE, S.
