Auto Dodge Phoenix Sfing'l in the Spider CARS OF SUPREME QUALITY We invite you to inspect the magnificent range of Mercedes-Benz Saloon and fast Touring Cars at the Motor Show. These superb vehicles are available In a variety of models to suit every purpose, STAND 3 JLHERE is some almost indefinable quality about the projectile-like lines of a sleek sports thoroughbred that excites and captures the imagination.

And this is the reason why, of all the models that will carry the Alfa Romeo banner at the show this year, the Alfa Glulia Spider 1600 is likely to outshine them all. Its low-slung lines breathe stability. Its rounded contours suggest a masterful blending of technical and stylistic requirements. And after the true en sodium filled exhaust valves (for better cooling), hemispherical combustion chambers and two horizontal, twin-choke carburettors. Stopping power is, as could be expected, provided bv disc brakes on all four wheels.

It comes on rapidly but smoothly and it is almost impossible to induce fade. Other safety features include padded, reflection-free instrument panel most comprehensively equipped with rev. counter and a host of other gauges seat belt anchorages, pop-out windscreen of extra-thick safety into account, he would not be surprised to learn that the basic design of the Spider body was the work of the late Pininfaiina, universally acknowledged as one of the most brilliant ol the elite among automotive -stylists. The Spider's body is aero- dynamically clean and eDI-cient. and little of the' 125 brake-horsepower churned out by its four-cylinder motor is wastefully expended in shouldering aside masses of resisting air.

In full flight it betters 115 m.p.h., which is putting' territory behind at a very rapid rate indeed. The motor is not over-stressed, and Alfa claims it is using only 50 per cent, of its total power when cruising at 90 m.p.h. One of the reasons for the economical use of power is, of course, the five-forward-speed, fully synchromesh gear box that comes with the majority of high-performance Alfa Romeos. The motor offers a number of engineering refinements five roller bearings, twin overhead camshafts, light alloy cylinder head, LANE'S MOTORS 89 Exhibition Street, Melbourne. Phone 63 0241.
