Live below your means.
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.
