I heard Dooleys were taking over so there's lots of hearsay out there. Guess we gotta wait and see.
Penders garage itself seems to be going to be converted into an indy garage.

I have it on good account that Michael Lyng has the Ford Dealership for Kilkenny and that he will be using his Mitsubishi garage on the Hebron Rd to accomodate this.
If this is the case its nice to see a strong established dealership getting it!

Not too surprising, the Mitsubishi range in Ireland has gone to pot and I'd say volumes are tiny. Hyundai are streets ahead. Ford will be a big success for Lyngs as they have a very good range of cars.

A few guys from Mark Murphys garage out in Clara have setup on their own in Penders workshop.

Yeah Lyngs taking on the Ford dealership out of where they have Mitsi at the minute. Not sure what will happen to the Mitsi dealership now.

Am I right in saying Michael Lyng started with Penders originally or they both worked in Donohoes Enniscorthy or something...

I see there's a new car sales garage operating now at old Penders. Kilkenny car complex it's called. Still have a lot of used Fords on the forecourt.

I heard Barry jnr is involved with this new setup. I also saw one of the contact in their Kilkenny People ad last week was a Barry so I'd say this is correct.

It's still Barry Pender - just a new business is all.

Michael Lyng Motors has his new fancy Ford signs and all up outside the Hebron road garage and painted blue and silver of Ford.
