I broke down on the  Nenagh/ Limerick road. I tried two other recovery companies and was given excuses for reasons why they couldn't help me. However, i googled recovery companies and there i got BM Motors number. The guy came who was named Brian.  He was a lovely man with a great personality and understanding of what i was going through. He brought myself and my little girl to Nenagh where he also dropped off my car to my local garage. His fees were very fair. So MANY, MANY thanks Brian, you're a very knowledgeable and professional person but 100% gentleman.
Totally recommended.

The Belclare Sheep breed was a new word among sheep breeds in Ireland, when they appeared on the scene in the late 1970’s.

 

This new breed was developed at An Forus Taluntais research center at Belclare hence the name of the breed. The Belclare breed came about solely by the vision, dedication and foresight of one man, Dr. J.P. Hanrahan, An Forus Taluntais (Now Teagasc). Dr Hanrahan is a scientist in sheep breeding with much experience in Australia and elsewhere. Back home Dr Hanrahan saw the necessity to raise lamb numbers in the national flock where lamb percentage at the time stood at approx 125%. His initial work on the Belclare project involved research with ewes of many breeds that occasionally produced triplets. He later carried out trials with Finnish Landrace on Galway sheep. He next introduced Lleyn Sheep to the mix in the mid 70’s and so the nucleus of the Belclare was formed. The breed was first introduced to farmers in 1982 when a small number of sheep farmers were approached to breed rams for the institute which were bought back in the autumn for redistribution to interested sheep farmers.

 

Forming the Belclare Sheep Society

A meeting took place in the Royal Hoey Hotel, in Athlone on the 11th of October 1985. The purpose of the meeting was to form the Belclare Sheep Society. After long hours of discussions and suggestions the Belclare Sheep Society was formed and following officers were elected.

President: Dr J.P. Hanrahan, Chairman Mr. PJ O Dea, Galway, And Secretaries Mr Pat O’ Dea, Agricultural Institute, Mr. Joe Teasdale, Kilkenny, Committee: Mr. Niall Connelly, Louth, Mr. Pat Carey, Wicklow and Mr. Tom Sice, Galway.

 

The Early Belclare

The first Belclare sheep where called Belclare improvers and had a significant amounts of Finnish Landrace blood. Litter size was high but the breed lacked substance and conformation. To rectify this the Belclare’ s were crossed with Texel rams to produce what was termed the

Belclare Mark II from which today’s Belclare sheep have originated.

 

Today’s Belclare

The Belclare sheep that are found on Irish farms today are very different sheep from their ancestors that started the breed almost 40 years ago. Infusions of Texel blood coupled with rigorous selection and culling by dedicated Belclare breeders resulted in the specimens that

are seen on farms nowadays. This has allowed the Belclare not only to command the premier position as a maternal sire but also allows it to compete with terminal sire breeds as a breed that is able to sire rapidly growing fleshy lambs.

I’m visiting from the United States and I rented a car from Colton. I representatives name was Oleg and he was fabulous and took care of everything and gave me the best possible price. The car was perfect and we had a wonderful trip.

Buying a used car can be stressful, not knowing if its going to be reliable or not, but Colton Motors in Tullamore (especially Eddie) couldn't have made things any easier. I had a couple of things I needed doing to make the car perfect for my needs & they (Eddie) did it all. Thanks Eddie.

Great dealership to buy from and a main Ford dealer too so piece of mind when buying a second hand car. Sent a video of the car before making the trip to see it. Made sure it was all working and serviced before buying too. Aidan Reinhardt in the sales was so nice and very clear about my options. Have recommended to family and friends and will buy again from Aidan, he’s lovely.

I purchased my Ford Ranger from this dealership a couple of years ago. I have to say that the experience up to the point of sale was excellent - communication was great, the vehicle presentation was professional, and collecting the keys felt like a premium experience.

Since then, my experience with their after-sales especially service and workshop has been extremely disappointing. I trusted the dealership to carry out safety-critical repairs correctly. I was invoiced for suspension and ball joint replacement work, also they passed the van CVRT only to later discover during most recent CVRT test that a steering/suspension component appears to have been welded instead of properly replaced. This resulted in the vehicle failing the test on a major safety defect.

Being charged for what should have been a proper repair, only to face potential safety concerns later, has been very frustrating. As a customer, you expect a main dealer to carry out work to the highest manufacturer and safety standards.

The contrast between the excellent pre-sale experience and the very poor after-sales support has been stark. I am now dealing with the inconvenience, additional costs and stress of having to rectify work that should have been done correctly in the first place.

I hope the dealership will take this matter seriously and improve the quality and transparency of their service going forward.

I’m very disappointed with my experience with Eddie at Calton Motors Tullamore after purchasing a used car from them.

Before buying, I was told the car would be fully serviced. Unfortunately, this clearly was not the case. When I checked the car myself shortly after purchase, the engine oil was in very poor condition and obviously hadn’t been changed. Even worse, the pollen/cabin filter was nearly black and full of dirt and debris — something that should absolutely be replaced during a basic service.

Buying a car is a big investment, and customers rely on dealerships to be honest and carry out the work they say they will. Sadly, this experience has left me with little confidence in their after-sales service.

I hope they take this feedback seriously and improve their service going forward.
