Information about Kylemore trade cars?

cm27639 · 2016-05-29 20:50:37

Hi I am looking to buy a used car. I am wondering what people think of kylemore cars? I was also looking at N4 cars and Bill griffen cars. I'd like to get something decent. Any advice?

Kylemore cars good, I wouldn't bother with the other 2.
They are all at the low end of the market of course, but Kylemore have a lot of stuff that they buy direct from main dealers which is usually very good stuff, just not what a main dealer would put on their forecourt mainly due to age/brand.

Bill griffin has been around for years.

Also seems they have lower prices than others, but don't haggle on them. (i prefer that than jacking up to haggle down)

Kylemore Cars and Kylemore Trade Cars are completely different companies.

The only thing that would scare me off would be no warranty

Kylemore cars - good

Kylemore trade cars - no warranty

I would have no hesitation buying off kylemore cars if they had something I was interested in.

Any of the others listed in this thread I wouldn't buy an air freshener off.

I bought off Bill Griffen about 12 months ago now, car was well priced. Your not going to get any discounts off them. There stock moves very quick, so you need to be ready to jump if you see a car you like. Most are UK imports.
