New Car?

Received the following from our own Sunny from Aimless Ramblings and Leigh Smith…just had to share!

 

This man owned & drove the same car for…

82 YEARS!

 

 
Can you imagine even having the same car for 82 years?  I thought I was doing good with the same car for a bit over 15 years!
 
 
Mr. Allen Swift ( Springfield, MA ) received this 1928 Rolls-Royce Piccadilly-P1 Roadster from his father, brand new - as a graduation gift in 1928.
 
He drove it up until his death last year…at the age of 102!!!
 
He was the oldest living owner of a car that was purchased new.
 
Just thought you'd like to see it.
 
It was donated to a Springfield museum after his death.
 
It has 1,070,000 miles on it, still runs like a Swiss watch, dead silent at any speed and is in perfect cosmetic condition (82 years). That's approximately 13,048 miles per year (1087 per month).
 
1,070,000 miles, not kilometers!!
 
Wow!
