"How Long Have You Owned a Car?"/ Curiosidades

Can you imagine having the same car for 82 years?!!!

I guess it was no longer under warranty...

 

"How Long Have You Owned a Car?"  

Mr. Allen Swift ( Springfield , MA.) received this 1928 Rolls-Royce Picadilly 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 from new.  Just thought you'd like to see it.

He donated it to a Springfield museum after his death. It has 170,000 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 2000 miles per year
