Portugal: Just in case I miss something!


I must have been in a very enthusiastic frame of mind when I visited Portugal for two weeks in 1984 because I seemed to have photographed everything including the ugly and mundane. I imagine this elderly forward-control Volvo must have looked quite presentable when it was new but by the time I photographed it still earning it's keep in the Porto rush-hour it had paid for itself several times over. Like old Leylands these rugged fairly unsophisticated Volvo's would soldier on for years.

  1. Beautiful photo! This Volvo belongs to "Oliveira, Fernandes e Ribeiro".It was new in 1957.
