    I know this is more Galway county but Galway city gets more traffic...

    Passed Mellotte motors just now and no cars outside.

    Anyone know if they are closing down?

    It's still a family business, it's being run by the former owner's son who is also an experienced car man - I forget his name.

    Over the last few years they focused on importing good cars from the UK to sell on here. Afaik they still do that in the main and have a good back up for their sales.

    I would buy a car from them.
