I personally have been in the motor trade for over 30 years. I've worked in some of the large car dealerships and completed loads of various courses here and in the UK to quite a high level. Great to pass on some of this knowledge to our team who I would be lost without. We are part of the APPROVED GARAGE NETWORK. I believe we are the only local APPROVED GARAGE in the west of the city. Currently our two youngest members Antroin and Oisin have attended various courses to hopefully provide dealership standards to our local customers at affordable rates.
