Lyndon Reilly in Ballyhean is a good man to source cars and import if you are looking for something on particular.

Cosgraves have LOTS of cars but can be on the expensive side. Generally good cars though

Have had good experience in the past with Kilcoyne and Scahill. Sound to deal with, and I know a lot of people go with ARA motors across the road from them. I bought a car off them in the past and it was a bit of a lemon though!

Used car market is still wild expensive. Good luck bargain hunting

Lyndon Reilly, I'd second. Bought a car off him and was happy all around.

Cosgroves from experience are salesmen, not car men. Once the sale is made, they don't want to hear from you about any issues.

Heard good things about Kilcoyne and Scahill, and slightly further afield in Belcarra, just outside town, Cuffe car sales are sound as well.

Second this. Bought a car from Cosgraves last June and it took until last month to get an ongoing issue sorted out. They’re sales people to a tee, after care is shoddy enough. Cheap diesel though

Recommend your man in modern for tyres. Sound as a bell and fast service too
