A uctions present the opportunity to buy cars at a huge discount, and Gallagher Motor Auctions guarantees therell be no surprises with your purchase. Gallagher Motor Auctions will hold its first auction on Saturday November 21, and will offer something practically unheard of in the industry: a three- month warranty. Based in the former Dublin headquarters of Nissan, stretching from the Naas Road to the Long Mile Road, Gallagher Motor Auctions are determined to create a new kind of motor auction, one which is both user-friendly and family- friendly, where the fears usually associated with traditional auctions are banished for good. Besides offering warranties on cars purchased at Gallaghers, personal bidders will be on hand to help the uninitiated through what can be for some a daunting process. For those who wish it, these bidders will bid on your behalf and help fill in the necessary forms. Independent mechanics as well as AA inspectors will also be available to the public to check over cars and give their seals of approval. Add to this coffee shops, childrens play areas, car valeting and car accessories services, and Gallagher Motor Auctions is set to revolutionise an industry traditionally associated with the trade. The trade has long known that the best value for cars is found at the auctions, but theyve been happy to keep it a secret, said managing director Paul Gallagher. Gallagher Motor Auctions is aimed at the public market, ordinary people who have been intimidated by the idea of buying at auction. You can be confident of buying 25 per cent cheaper, and a simple 250 deposit secures purchase. With four showrooms, separating cars under 20,000, prestige cars, commercial vehicles and motorbikes spread over 7,500sq m, plus a further 600 exterior parking spaces, Gallagher Motor Auctions promises an exciting and user-friendly day out for all the family. Auctions will be held on Saturday at 12pm with viewing Friday and Saturday from 10am. There will also be an evening auction every Wednesday. The launch auction will take place on Saturday November 21 with viewing all day Friday and Saturday morning. Wednesday auctions start with cars at 4pm and commercial vehicles at 6pm. COMMERCIAL FEATURE CAR AUCTIONS: THE DOs AND DONTs... DO get to the auction site the day before to check the cars out. This will give you time to fully inspect them and take the lot numbers of the cars you might be interested in. DO bring a mechanic. Unless you are one yourself, you need a profes- sional eye to go over the engine, transmission, electrical system, etc. Gallaghers have a mechanic stationed on site who will provide a full walk- through for just 20. DO register. If youre not in, you cant win. Youll be kicking yourself if your dream car is snapped up cheap. You will get your deposit back if you dont buy anything. DONT get into a bidding war. If two people get too attached to one car, one of them could end up paying more than its worth. DONT bid on a car you havent fully inspected. DONT go without a budget. Decide beforehand on the maximum you can afford, and try to buy as far below it as possible. Its easy to impulse buy at an auction, so stick to your budget. index.html2.html3.html4.html5.html6.html7.html8.html9.html10.html11.html12.html13.html14.html15.html16.html17.html18.html19.html20.html21.html22.html23.html
