Barlo Engineering trading as Clonmel Engineering Works was started by Matt Barlow in 1944 (father of Sean Barlow). The original premises was in Emmet Street, Clonmel which is where Superquinn Shopping Centre is now located.



The company's first major achievement came in 1948 when we were appointed Main Distributors for David Brown tractors and Claas combine harvesters. This contract meant we were the sole distributors for counties Tipperary, Kilkenny and Waterford for David Brown and Class.



Business kept going from strength to strength during the 1960's and 1970's, and in 1978, the newly named Barlo Farm Machinery moved it's Clonmel premises to a brand new facility which was opened by Mr Jim Gibbons, the then Minister for Agriculture.



Barlo Farm Machinery served the farming community with great pride from it's 5 branches, namely Clonmel, Kilkenny, Thurles, Tipperary Town and Dungarvan right up to the early 2000's. A new generation of the Barlow family were coming through, and in 1989, Barlo Motors was appointed as Main Ford dealer for South Tipperary. The 'Barlo' name meant a lot to people and it was seen as a great move forward for the area to have Barlo Motors selling Ford cars and commercials. Sadness came in 2002 when Dealer Principal Ray Barlow passed away after a short illness. The company re-grouped and Alan and Ivan Barlow came to the helm and this is still how things are today.



The Barlo motto from the start was ' Treat Your Customer As You Would Like To Be Treated Yourself 'and this has worked well as we still deal with many grandchildren of original customer's back in the 1940's.

Barlo are very easy and professional  to deal with. Very competitive. This is our third car through them. Fergal  thanks, for your effort and helping with our  purchase, and for answering the phone every ⏲️ time. Talked us through driving, an automatic for the first time. Consider them, no matter what part of the country you're from.

I recently purchased a 2020 Ford Mondeo from Barlo Motors, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The car is absolutely fantastic – smooth drive, stylish design, and everything I hoped for. A special thanks to Fergal, who made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care stood out from the start. He took the time to ensure I was completely happy with my purchase and answered all my questions with ease.

Barlo Motors delivers not just quality vehicles but top-tier customer service. Highly recommended!

My husband and I purchased a new Ford Kuga a month ago through Fergal. Fergal was a gentleman to deal with and was in no way pushy with the sale. He gave us a good price for our trade in, answered all our questions and all our dealings with him were relaxed and friendly. Highly recommend Barlos and Fergal.

I bought a Ford Transit connect from Barlo ford and dealt with Fergal, who made everything very simple and an absolute pleasure to deal with!

Hopefully to god anybody unfortunate enough to buy anything from these doesn't have any problems with anything because nothing will be done to help you. i bought a brand new van on the 23rd of November from Fergal, first problem was there was a minor dint under the passenger door reported it to Fergal on the 25th of November eventually got fixed 5 months later after numerous and numerous messages. I also asked for the van to be fitted with a tow bar and requested the 13 pin plug to be fitted only noticed on the 6th of January that they only bothered to wire it up as the older 7 pin and just fit the new 13 to make it look like it was done reported this to Fergal once again the same day was told it was very unusual but he can send an adapter to fix as that would be the easiest (an adapter won't sort this problem by the way) after multiple and multiple attempts to try get this sorted and been promised every time I asked that it will be sorted asap I eventually just gave up and paid a mechanic locally to do it myself in the middle of June 6 months later. Also reported a message i was getting that my 12v battery state of charge was low and was told that hed chech with his tech guy and never heard back one thing. 3 very minor problems and they could only sort 1 in 6 months. Before i posted this i text Fergal again to say i got wiring sorted and how much it was thinking they would do the decent thing and pay me back to which he read the message and didnt even bother to reply. I'd dread to think if it was anything serious. My advice is to think twice before ye buy anything from here
