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.

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.
