    Not today but a few weeks I came up behind a 1984 Skoda.
    I used to laugh at Skodas back in the 80's but this dirty old Skoda tipping away smoothly was earning my respect for some reason.

    Saw what a very old car out in Howth yesterday and again on the Malahide road today, looked like a Model T, or at least the same vintage!
    Couldn't stop to get a photo.

    This is driven by an old lady since new around Westmeath. Its NCTed every year, used all year round and has been with her since day 1. Its an absolute time capsule, I love seeing it

    Piece on Anton savage last Friday local paper round up - apparently this poor baby is no more, went up in flames on the way into town recently.
