Thanks to Janet Emery class of 1961 for sharing this...

This man owned & drove the same car for 82 YEARS. Can you imagine even having the same car for 82 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 !
That's British engineering of a bygone era. I don't think they make them like this anymore.
