What's more frustrating that not being able to buy the thing you want? Having to buy other unnecessary things to get access to buy the thing you want. That's the world of the modern-day supercar, and it's BS.  Dave was also lucky enough to spend some time in the company of one of the world's most important Volkswagens, which is soon going to go on display at the National Museum of Ireland in Collins Barracks, Dublin.  This week we're also brought to you in association with Cars Ireland.

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.  Follow 50to70 on Instagram Follow Dave Humphreys on Instagram Follow Cormac Singleton on Instagram Follow 3FE Coffee on Instagram Get your 3FE Coffee Here

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.  Follow 50to70 on Instagram Follow Dave Humphreys on Instagram Follow Cormac Singleton on Instagram Follow 3FE Coffee on Instagram Get your 3FE Coffee Here  

Having recently acquired a Volvo 440 GL that has been parked in a garage for a quarter of a century, Cormac has set about recommissioning it to go back on the road?

Is it really that cool? Let us tell you.  Follow 50to70 on Instagram Follow Dave Humphreys on Instagram Follow Cormac Singleton on Instagram Follow 3FE Coffee on Instagram Get your 3FE Coffee Here

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.  You can follow Neil on Instagram Follow 50to70 on Instagram Follow Dave Humphreys on Instagram Follow Cormac Singleton on Instagram Follow 3FE Coffee on Instagram Get your 3FE Coffee Here

In this week's show we discuss where it all went wrong for Ford in Europe and how using older model names isn't always the wisest strategy. Looking at you, Ford Capri. Did you also know about Fordlândia, when Ford tried to make a city in the Amazon? We mourn the end of the R35 Nissan GT-R and discuss which direction Mazda could take with the next MX-5.  Follow 50to70 on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/50to70/ Follow Dave Humphreys on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lordhumphreys/ Follow Cormac Singleton on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workscoopers/ Follow 3FE Coffee on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/3fecoffee Get your 3FE Coffee here: https://3fe.com/

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. We also attended the world premiere of the new Volvo ES90, an electric saloon that, as we explain, isn't technically a saloon.  Kia has unveiled a number of new electric cars, and we went to the EV Day in Barcelona to see what's up.  Follow 50to70 on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/50to70/ Follow Dave Humphreys on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lordhumphreys/ Follow Cormac Singleton on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workscoopers/ Follow 3FE Coffee on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/3fecoffee Get your 3FE Coffee here: https://3fe.com/

We cover a lot of ground this week but the big news is how we've saved not one, not two but three cars from being cut up forever.

Switching back to more modern cars, we discuss the Alfa Romeo Junior that Dave has been testing this week.  Follow 50to70 on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/50to70/ Follow Dave Humphreys on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lordhumphreys/ Follow Cormac Singleton on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workscoopers/ Follow 3FE Coffee on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/3fecoffee Get your 3FE Coffee here: https://3fe.com/
