120 laps around the world. That's equivalent to the distance that Irv Gordon, a 74-year-old New York native, has traveled in his 1966 Volvo P1800.
3,000,000 miles.
And for every mile, Gordon has a reason to love his Volvo. He says that he bought the car brand new off the lot on a Friday, and by Monday was rolling back into the dealership for the vehicle's 1500-mile checkup. He adored driving it so much that he just couldn't get out of the driver's seat.
We've included this touching and beautiful video, so that you can enjoy this inspirational story as much as we do!
How does he do it? How has he kept a car in such incredible condition for 48 years? Well, it's not magic (we checked!) Gordon says he only uses one brand of oil for consistent care of the engine, genuine Volvo replacement parts, and, for 48 years, he has been scheduling factory-recommended maintenance.
And if your current car is plodding its very last trip, don't worry. At Volvo of Stamford we have an expert team of specialists and a fully-stocked inventory of new Volvos to get you going on your own million miles.
