Car Service in Carlow

Bobby1984

I am looking to get my car serviced in Carlow and was hoping some boardsies might have recommendations.

I have called the Opel garage twice. They answered and said that they would call back with a price and time. I'm still waiting!!
I was put on hold when I called Advance Pitstop for almost 15 minutes so in the end I had to hang up.


Cheers

Brian Cooney motors in Ballickmoyler are really decent and seem very competitively priced.

if you google BC motors you'll get their contact details. I've used him and my wife for the last number of years and never had an issue with him.

John Dermody on Hackettstown road. Excellent knowledge and very nice man to deal with

totally agree. I had to search around for someone who could service a land rover defender properly and BC Motors have been fantastic. Brilliant customer service as they've even arranged transport home for me any time I had to leave the landy there overnight

I have used Brian myself from time to time over the years before BC motors etc. I've found he can be hit and miss with timing unless pushed on the matter. If you're in need of a car you may well find yourself stuck badly.

I've heard others report the same and prices seem to have gone up.

He's been grand for small jobs and servicing but any major work tends to drag on.

Yes John Dermody for me and will make everything is 100% before it goes out.

A representative of BC Motors has been in touch, iwillhtfu, so I'm posting this response on their behalf. They've included contact details if you'd like to follow up with them further.

"I’m sorry to hear we didn’t live up to expectations iwillhtfu. You’re absolutely right, timing was an issue for us in the past but we’re happy to report that we’ve taken on another auto technician along with a service manager to ensure jobs are finished in a timely fashion. For the past four years we’ve also offered customers the use of a courtesy car, completely free of charge to ensure that there is minimal disruption to their lives while their car is being worked on. We pride ourselves on keeping costs down as much as possible for customers and are always happy to negotiate with them. If you would like to contact us directly on 059 9147598 or bcmotorscarlow@gmail.com we’d love to discuss your feedback further."

Fair play to them. It's a burnt bridge but credit where it's due. Hopefully business is on the up and with that their customer service.
