suspected he or she was
abusing their children, what
would you do about it?
Chances are you wold suffer
the -knowledge in silence
because you wouldn't be sure
what action to take. What if
the screams and erying had
other causes? What action
would the neighbour take if
you were wrong?

that it comes ina Rabbit.

The Rabbit we put the diesel engine in is
the identical car we put the gas engine in.
Which makes it the most affordable diesel-
powered car around. '

And, like the Rabbit, the Rabbit Diese! has
more useable carrying space than any other
car its size, - ;

' It also has front wheel drive, independent
suspension on all four wheels, rack and pinion
steering, o dual diagonal braking system with

front wheel discs, steel belted radial tires, fully
adjustable reclining bucket seats, and an elec-

 trically heated rear window defroster. In fact,

the Rabbit with the diesel engine, like its gas-
driven twin, is packed with enough technolog-
ical innovations to fill a book.

-When the gas-powered Rabbit was first
introduced, automotive writers called it “The
car of the future”. And soon, there were all kinds
of cars on the road Irying to look like the Rabbit.
