This week we are joined by John P Mohan, one of Ireland's leading classic car dealers and specialists. John's bread and butter are classic cars from the 1950s to the 1990s, and he is a font of knowledge when it comes to sourcing and restoration.

April 12, 2025 EP40: Ford Puma Gen-E, Techno Classica Essen & supercar values
We've had a busy week at 50to70, starting with the launch of the Ford Puma Gen-E. Yes, Ford's little crossover is going electric and no, it's still not as cool as the original Puma. Dave tells us everything you need to know about it.
From there we headed up to the Techno Classica Show in Essen, Germany, to see whats' what in the classic scene there. Spoiler alert, if we never see another 300SL Gullwing again we won't be disappointed. Thankfully, there was so much more to see than those, so buckle up, make a coffee and let us tell you about everything we saw.

April 05, 2025 EP39: What's Skoda doing in Vietnam & the story of Ireland's only Honda Element
Think Skoda and you think of clever and practical cars from the Czech Republic. You might not think of Skoda and come up with India or even Vietnam, but these two places play an important role in the company's future. Dave has been to Vietnam to see what's happening and what it all means.
We also (finally) tell the story of how Dave managed to get his hands on the only Honda Element in Ireland, and how Cormac is the car equivalent of the CIA when it comes to tracking down vehicles.

March 21, 2025 EP37: Remembering Eddie Jordan & learning about Joe Kelly, Ireland's first F1 driver
This week we celebrate the life of Eddie Jordan. He contributed so much to not only Formula One, but to motorsport in general, and all while proudly flying the Irish flag. This week Neil Kavanagh, our resident motorsport historian, also tells us about Joe Kelly. Not only was Joe the first Irish driver to take part in an F1 race, he took part in the very first F1 race at Silverstone in 1950! On top of all that, he has a surprising link to Ferrari.

BMW has done something incredible that will have a massive effect on people's productivity. Its archive of models is now available digitally, and let us tell you, it's wonderful.
