Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi,
    Has anyone had any dealings with these guys? They are based on Parkgate Street. Very limited information online, and their website isn't working.

    They claim to be SIMI registered - but they aren't. The previous premises name that was there (Phoenix Motors) was a SIMI member. I was actually there this week to have a look at a car - they didn't even have it on the lot!
    I had to wait quite a while before it was brought over (a kid was driving it with L plates displayed!).
    Anyway, I have my doubts on the honesty of the place:

    1) When I test drove the car, the mileage on the car was 3000 MILES MORE than what was actually listed on the ad.

    2) The speedo on the dash of the car was MPH... I have no problem with a UK import - but I want to be TOLD this rather than pass the car off as an Irish car.

    3) The ad lists the car as having 1 Owner... but doing a CarTell report confirmed that the car WAS a UK import, and actually had 2 UK owners, before having Irish Owner in JULY 2016... so the ad is false as car to-date has actually had 3 owners.

    Given my experience there this week, I'd approach the place with caution, and treat buying a car from there as if you were doing it privately and make sure you do thorough background checks & mechanical checks of the car.
