PIC: Only in Mayo would an Audi supercar be used for carrying turf

It’s a long way from London

Conor Heneghan

Who needs a tractor and trailer when you have this beast?

Those of you who have ever had the privilege of visiting Belmullet in the wilds of north Mayo (next stop, New York say the locals) will know that supercars aren’t exactly regularly spotted in the area.

There’s been one there over the festive season, however, an Audi R8 that JOE reader Gary Gallagher, now living in London, has been spinning around in while visiting the family at Christmas.

We can’t be absolutely sure of it, but we reckon it might be the first time such a machine has been used for carrying turf…

…or been pictured alongside a tractor against a beautifully scenic backdrop in what really does make for a glorious picture.

We hope Gary didn’t try and take it on in a race, because word has it that Massey can move!

Cheers to Gary Gallagher for sending this our way. If you have something you would like to share with us, send it to [email protected] or hit us up on Facebook or Twitter
