What's the longest you've ever owned a car?

I've had my current car almost 13 years - that's the longest for me!


Mr. Allen Swift of Springfield, Massachusetts, 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 from new - 82 years. 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. He drove it approximately 2,000 miles per year...
