The 1974 Volkswagen Dasher. It's over four grand, but you get what you pay for.


IT'S OVER 4 GRAND BUT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR
Over $4,000 for a Volkswagen?'' Sounds unbelievable. But then, so is Dasher. ABOUT 25 MILES TO THE GALLON*** With this kind of mileage, Dasher drivers aren't hurt as much by rising gasoline prices. So while others are counting out dollars at their local gas stations, Dasher drivers are zipping around town. (Dasher goes from 0 to 50 in only 8.5 seconds.) SEATS FIVE COMFORTABLY Saving money by riding in a car pool? Dasher gives you Big Car com-forts. Like wide doors that are easy to get through. And plenty of stretch-out room, so now you can be comfortable and still ride economically. 17.3 CUBIC FOOT TRUNK Even more Big Car extras. There's enough room in Dasher's trunk for two large suitcases, a suitbag, a couple of small suitcases, a briefcase, and plenty of small items that you couldn't 
cram into your bags. HOLDS THE ROAD Along with economy, you also want a car that's easy to handle. We've got it. Dasher is specially designed and engineered to give you maximum con-trol while driving. Besides having front wheel drive and rack and pinion steer-ing. According to Imported Car Per-formance, ''You get a rather amazing ride which would be hard to duplicate in a car that's 1,000 pounds heavier.'' (And it also lets you see the road. Dasher's 26.9 square feet of window space gives you excellent visibility.) BIG CAR LUXURY We've mentioned it all before, but we'll say it again. With luxurious seats and built-in headrests. Plenty of leg room. Plus an incredibly smooth ride with superior handling. The only way you'll know that Dasher isn't a Big Luxury Car is when you look at its 
sleek, compact design from the out-side. VW OWNER'S SECURITY BLANKET With the cost of living rising so sharply, who can afford car repairs? That's why Dasher comes with the Volkswagen Owner's Security Blanket —the most comprehensive coverage plan available. And also ... COMPUTER ANALYSIS So you'll be able to keep an eye on what's going on inside your car. Of course, like every Volkswagen, Dasher is made to be repaired easily. And amazingly, it only needs mainte-nance at 10,000 mile intervals. ''... A NEW VOLKSWAGEN AS MODERN AS TOMORROW.'' That's exactly what Dasher is. The car that saves money on gas, upkeep, and all the problems of today. While still giving you the roominess and power that will be offered in the car of the future.
