Hi - I'm thinking of buying a car from A&J motors in robin hood lane, Dublin. I'm wondering has enyone else bought from this garage? Any feedback positive or negative appreciated.

Thanks

Solocheck says they are only in business 5 months but very easy for businesses to change names and move around frequently so be careful:

As expected this guy wasn't the straightest of car sellers (is there any?) As soon as I told him I had an association with the AA motoring organisation he back off the sale as if he was hiding something.
Thanks for your help.

I know its an old post but just to warn anyone else thinking of going here, bought a car off him for € 6400 a week later oil leaking from turbo on to the exhaust and auto transmission slipping in 5th gear. Brought it back to him for 4 days he said he fixed leak, transmission was fine he said.
Transmission is still slipping, A week later i noticed the oil leak again. He says turbo no covered under warranty. Transmission not covered unless it basically stops on the side of the road. His warranty means absolutely nothing, hes a liar and tried making up all sorts of excuses. He didn't realise im a mechanic. Gonna sort it myself at least i know it'll be done. U may as well buy privately or at an auction. SO DONT BUY OFF THESE LADS.

I have bought a car of AJ Motors in October 2017. As agreed with the dealer I left the car for repairs. The car stayed in their garage for 3 days. On the day of the purchase we both agreed that they will fix 3 of the items that were broke. They had the nerve to fool me by spraying the squiky window with WD40 and worn of clutch. they also haven't touched the radio. They had a huge problem that I have called asking to fix it again. They have strongly refused. Second time I called they've called me names and refused any contact. I DO NOT RECOMEND TO BUY A CAR OF THOSE GUYS AT ALL!!
