    Not in Carlow but Clara cars in Kilkenny would only be 20 mins away, one of the better ones around.

    None in town but there is a good few within 20 min drive. Whealens of the heath would be one of the best ones i often pick up parts there. Plus there is 2 others on the way over there but they wouldnt have as good of stock

    Whelans, The Heath
    Martin Byrne, Stradbally
    Munnelly, Arles
    Clara Cars, Kilkenny
    One in Royal Oak too that i cant remember the name of.

    Used to be a great one up on the Curragh, but i think it's gone.

    I find the best one of all is Felix Byrne's in Gorey - bit of a spin but great service tbf.

    Stones is the one near the Curragh. Its back open now under old Johnny's son. Not used it myself but hearing its not as good as it use to be.

    Afaik the fire brigade can only take cars that have been issued a cert showing they ve been scrapped.

    The car I sold for scrap ended up in the carlow fire station and also appeared in the carlow paddys day parade gone by lol.
