I used Cartell last time i bought a car but I don't think there is too much difference between any of them.

Just beware a large % of Irish crashed cars are repaired by not going through the insurance. Outstanding finance may be more important as some sell cars they don't actually own. (Pcp, car loan etc)
In terms of crash damage bring someone with you who knows cars and check for damage inside boot, under the bonnet and check under car. Check pain colour on all.paneos match and all dors close smoothly etc Also assess owner of car, their house, how presented etc. If owner is a chancer walk away.
