Bought a van from John last year, absolute gentleman. Pleasure to deal with, very honest and happy to help. He promised to forward a spare key when he received it from the previous owners. I was sceptical having dealt with salesmen and false promises previously but true to his word the key arrived in the post. The van is exactly as was described and any queries I had after the sale, Johnny was happy to help. Will certainly travel all the way from Carlow to deal with John again.

Absolute pleasure dealing with John, bought a Volkswagen Golf from him. Car is in excellent condition and very fairly priced. Couldn’t recommend him enough.

A pleasure dealing with John (Newman)! He cares about his long term reputation and I sold my VW Golf at a fair price, with no hassle on checks and very prompt payment.

Fantastic and fair, bought a Toyota, traded in my Hyundai against it. John was straight up and honest from our first  conversation on the phone. Very good dealership, great staff and a variety of quality cars. Would recommend to anyone looking for a car.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS PLACE. SOLD ME AN ILLEGALLY MODIFIED CAR.
I bought a Mitsubishi ASX off John last year. The engine blew within the year and I reached out for help on it as there was a warning sign for the engine on it when I bought it but he assured me it was just a fault and to ignore it. Turns out the engine was illegally modified (DPF) to perform better (reason the engine blew). Either the team did the checks and John knowingly and illegally sold me an illegally modified car or there was no checks done on the car and sold me a car that nearly killed me, my partner and our dog on the motorway. I have contacted JOHN himself numerous times which he has seen on WhatsApp and never bothered to reply.
