Boyzone star urges drivers 'to drive smart' to save money

Boyzone's Shane Lynch has launched a new efficient driving campaign by leading fuels and convenience retailer Topaz.

To mark the new campaign, Shane visited the Topaz site at Glasnevin in Dublin, just down the road from where he worked previously in his dad's garage as a mechanic. He is pictured there with Anna Zukowska. He is also pictured, below, with some toy cars at Glasnevin.

Shane also visited the Topaz site at Cashel at Junction 8 on the M8 Dublin Cork motorway. The award winning site has become the main stop off point for motorists requiring fuel, a bite to eat or a short break.

A keen driving enthusiast, he says motorists could knock hundreds of Euro off their motoring costs by adapting their driving styles and making key changes.

"Accelerating smoothly, removing unnecessary weight, avoiding tailgating and driving at a moderate speed are just some of the ways you can save money," he advises.
