Man at 102 owned same car 82 years


 

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...
