1,6 million miles record Volvo!

Hope you don't mind me telling this story!?

Have you heard about the man from Finland who drove his Volvo 1.2 million miles ( 2 million km )? He changed engine four times (diesel) but the body was the same although very crappy in the end. The story tells that Mr. Gyllenhammar who at that time was managin director, awarded the Finn a medal for the first one million and then told him, as a joke, " drive another million," and he did! The man delivered newspapers every day to different cities in Finland and the story tells that the car was running day and night.
