While other car makers are busy taking the wraps off their new model cars, Volkswagen has gone one step further and changed the wraps. From the minute you drive away in your '74 Volkswagen, you're covered by our Owner's Security Blanket with Electronic Analysis. It's not just a warranty. It's a commitment to our owners long after they've signed on the dot- ted ine. We like to think of it as total transporta- tion becouse you deserve a car you con count on 365 days a year. And we believe that you shouldn't have to keep on paying just to get what you deserve. Nobody in the car business has any plan like it. Nobody seems to care enough. Or do enough. Except Volkswagen.

Most car owners drive about 14,000 miles during the first year. So what earthly good is a 12,000 mile guarantee? Volkswagen's coverage is for 20,000 miles - most car companies don't come near that. This is aur guarantee, in plain English: "If you maintain and serv- ice your 1974 Volkswagen as prescribed in the Volkswagen Maintenance Schedule, any factory parts found to be defective in material or workmanship within 12 months or 20,000 miles, whichever comes first (except filters, fluids and lubricants), will be repaired or replaced free of charge by any Canadian or U.S. dealer.

As long as you have them adlusted when your Maintenance Schedule says so, we'll replace them free if they wear out. Same thing goes for clutch linings and batteries. And spark plugs and points? We change them free at 12,000 miles and we'll honour that no motter how long it takes you to go that distanceThis is unheard of in the auto industry. 24 months/24,000 miles. We've gone one step further insides of our engine and transmission. We guarantee them for two years or 24,000 miles, which- ever comes first.

We'll make the repair and guarantee the parts and workmanship for an additional 6 months 'or 6,000 miles. If the repair takes overight, we'll lend you a car. Moving right along, we're committed to keep you moving.
