760,000 kilometers in 2017 Hyundai Elantra to give blood | Car news


In the midst of the roads of Atlantic Canada, the 2017 Hyundai Elantra, nicknamed the “Angel of Darkness” by its owner, Tim German, has accumulated no less than 760,400 kilometers in Atlantic Canada on its odometer and this, for a good reason: donation of life-saving blood.

Purchased new at Steele Hyundai Halifax, this faithful road companion has witnessed historic events and crisscrossed the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, becoming a vital pillar in the rapid delivery of blood products.

A deliberate choice
Tim German’s decision to choose the Elantra in 2017 was strongly influenced by an important event: a year earlier, an accident destroyed his previous car, a 2016 Elantra. Miraculously, he and his wife emerged unscathed. This event strengthened his faith in the brand, leading him to acquire his fourth Hyundai, praised for its durability and modern technology.

Angel of Darkness it’s more than just a car; he is a symbol of courage and service. Whether during the tragic mass shooting in Nova Scotia in 2020 or rescuing accident victims, Tim German and his Elantra have become the quiet heroes of modern times.

Despite challenges along the way, from unexpected encounters with local wildlife to near misses, Angel of Darkness it stands, thanks to intensive maintenance and Tim German’s meticulous attention to its upkeep.

Over the miles, Tim’s Elantra not only demonstrated incredible endurance, but also embodied proof that passion and care can extend a car’s life beyond expectation.

It is an inspiring story, reminding us that behind every mile there is a story of resilience, dedication and a strong desire to help others.
