    Noticed they weren't on carzone according to insolvency journal.ie they have just gone into voluntary liquidation no mention in media . A pity they are long est. and were good Mitsubishi and BMW dealer for many years . Don't know if they lost or gave up BMW a few years ago but dealing in used imports doesn't seem to have been good for them as they had a fairly small stk . Wonder if they had of improve their premises and kept BMW would they have done better ?

    it probably would of cost a fair wack to build a new premises and I don't think it would of improved things either.

    Remember that many places that built these fine glass showrooms are also in trouble nowadays and many have closed their doors also. It's just though going out their at the moment.

    Sad to see the go too, was suprised to be honest. They had some cars in there in their day.
    They were always a bit more expensive than everyone I always noticed.

    About ten years ago was their heyday. Their sticker was very common on new Beamers within a good radius of Tullamore.

    They lost the midlands BMW franchise several years ago (2006 maybe?), it went to Colm Quinn in Athlone.
