My grandfather drove the same car for 70 years.
A Sunbeam 14/40 Tourer, bought second-hand in 1933. Never broke down, never stalled, never even needed an oil change. It stood by him all his life, finally giving up on the very same day he died.
Even surrounded by newer models, he stayed faithful. Every weekend, he’d wax, polish and tune.
Until one day his eyes wandered to a curvy young Lexus, and the engine stopped.
On the outside lane of the M11.
I can’t prove it was a crime of passion, but I’m still selling that car for scrap.
