    I'm trying too figure out what year this garage opened up in first day. I know it's closed now and changed too tesco express but has anybody any ideas? I think it was around 1998. I've tried too Google it but maybe others will have more luck/info. Thanks in advance

    Well I know for definite that the garage had a shop in 1987 but I'm pretty sure that the car sales predates that. I'm almost certain that it was Renault then.
    It has been a garage as long as I can remember and I lived around there since 1977

    Opened sometime in the early to mid seventies as the Cenral Garage, relocated from Parnell Place, closed down after a short time, about a year or so.Operated on and off as a filling station until it became Renault. Don't hold me to those dates, they're ballpark at best.

    It was operating as Deasy & Talbot from 1977 to 1984. Alfa Romeo and Peugeot dealerships.

    It was definitely still a petrol station until mid-1999 as far as I remember.
