Cassovia Retro – international meeting of historic classic cars

Kosice’s main street belonged to classic cars, motorbikes and historical buses during the last few days. All motor enthusiasts could see veterans of well-known but also extinct brands in their best conditions, well-preserved like they were manufactured just a few days ago.

This year, 90 cars and 25 motorcycles arrived from Slovakia, Czech Republic and Hungary. The cars came from a time when their production was mostly manual and not produced in such quantities.

You could see brands like Rolls Royce, Jaguar, Mercedes or BMW, Tatra or Škoda, Aero or Ford…

Some of the biggest attractions include a car Tatra 87 from 1978, but also Aero 500 from 1929, oldest car FORD T from 1924, Hispano Suiza HGB from 1925 and a lot more. There were more than 200 participants in Košice, so it was a really big event.
