indstar safety equipment that_helps pro- tect you and your passengers in the event of an accident includes an airbag to supplement the safety belts for both the driver and front passenger, The system provides added

easy reach. But the true joy of Windstar is revealed out on the highway. The car-like ride is the smooth-est in its class. It's a confident, secure driving experience.

The standard engine is a 3.8 L SEFI V-6 that's governed by EEC-V, the latest generation Ford computer control module that's been tested and proven in high-performance racing cats. For smooth, confident passing power, this V-6 achieves 155 hp at 4,000 rpm (SAE net) and 220 Ibs/ft of torqué at 3,000 rpm. The transaxle is an

What does Third Party Legal Liability coverage protect me against?

«+ When you have an accident while driving a rented vehicle where the toss is covered by more. than one policy or certificate, a conflict may arise as to which insurance pays first (“primary”) and which policy only pays when the first policy has paid out all it can (“excess”). Frequently this

afforded by the rental company. Your Owner's Certificate remains “excess” to your rental policy in this situation.

* It also provides additional Third Party Legal Liability when the coverage available from the rental = ee only meets the for the

conflict can only be BC law says the rental

belts for outb side i beams, and front crush zone design, knee haired and an energy-absorbing steering column.

Windstar also incorporates features which can help you avoid an accident in the first place. These include such items as a standard 4-wheel anti-lock, braking system, a childproof lock for the sliding side door, and a brake/shift interlock system.

vehicle owner's policy is “prima-

ry” and your 4 Autoplan Owner's Certificate is “excess” which cre- ates a conflict. The Autoplan Rental Vehicle Policy seeks to avoid this conflict by being the “primary” on both your Autoplan Owner's Certificate and, where necessary, to the owner's policy

jariadiction where you are renting. For example, Third Party Legal Liability limits in Hawaii and Cal- ifornia are only $35,000.

* As a BC motorist, you have Third Party Legal Liability cover- age of at least $200,000 (Canadi- an) if you hold a driver's licence or Owner's Certificate. The Rental

Vehicle Policy gives you Third Party Legal Liability coverage up to $1,000,000.

+ Drivers of rented vehicles will also find this policy attractive as it provides additional coverage (Accident Benefits and UMP) to occupants of the rented vehicle even if they are not residents of B.C,

Insurance laws and limits in the US vary greatly from state to state. ICBC cannot tell you how the law of each state will apply to you. If you need such advice, con- tact the rental company you intend to use in the state you will be vis- iting or call its BC representative.

MAZDA RX-7

Excerpt from ‘Car and Driver’ Maloney, Castlegar Mazda

he pure sports care is a rarity these

F days. Even most builders of*perfor-

mance machines feel they must

broaden the appeal of their products by incor-

porating a full range of creature comforts and

adequate luggage capacity. Mazda brooked no

such compromises when it designed the latest version of the RX-7.

This two-seater is a minimalist machine, with a sensuous body tightly wrapped around a compact 255-hp turbocharged rotary engine, a sophisticated chassis, and space for two occupants. This single-minded design and some ruthless weight-saving measures make it the lightest car by far in its class.

The RX-7's competitors all deliver plenty of speed and roadholding, but none has the same instant reflexes. On a racetrack, the RX-7 lunges from comer to comer and enters turns as hard as a formula car. We might not want to drive an RX-7 in some of Michigan's miser- able weather, but it's one of our.favorite choic- es for Sunday-morning blasts.

Car wash group helps charities raise funds .

If you want to raise money for your charity or school, don't drag out the hoses and buckets

Instead, ask your local car wash about selling charity tickets and letting them do all the work. It's usually more lucrative, and - since car wash~ es use less water - it protects the environment.
