Issue 134 (July 2017)

Description

The July 2017 issue of Irish Vintage Scene (Issue 134) is now on sale, and on the cover this month we compare two beautiful examples of one of the most radical and unmistakeable big saloons ever built – the Citroen CX came in many variants, but here we put an Athena and LWB Prestige back-to-back. We also look at another seventies saloon in our second car feature, an Audi 100 C2 that you’ve probably seen before in a TV ad! Our main tractor feature this month tells the story of a beautiful little 1960 Porsche Junior, while our second outlines the salvation of a Zetor 4911 that was heading for the scrapheap. Our featured motorcycle this month is a recently-restored example of the “Rolls-Royce of scooters”, a late-model Heinkel Tourist, while our commercial feature introduces us to a Bedford CA delivery van that’s been a Co. Tipperary landmark for several generations. Our event reports include the recent IVVCC Festival of Transport, plus the Carlow Classic Motorcycle Show, Tipperary Vintage Rally, Swords Classic Sale and more, and all of the usual favourites are in there too, including a new regular slot about the people behind the magazine, so don’t miss out – get your July 2017 issue of Irish Vintage Scene today at any good newsagent, or order here online!
