Pre-purchase inspection Southern Ireland

[VinylRichie]

Hi, I'm in London but considering buying a Pagoda located in southern Ireland (Kilkenny). Can anyone recommend someone to do this reasonably locally (or in Dublin perhaps). Thanks, Richard

The closest I've heard of is a classic Merc specialist in Belfast.
Other than that you'll have to get someone from the UK to go over. It would be expensive but not half as expensive as buying a dud.

If Ben doesn't have a good suggestion for Kilkenny; Sean Murphy in Dublin (01)4542178 or try this guy http://www.lichtenberg-classics.ie/
I haven't used either but they were both mentioned favorably by acquantainces. Also worth puting a call into MSL in Dublin and see if they have a suggestion. if the guys in Dublin area don't have a solution I can pass on names in Cork, but I don't know if they will do the 4 hr roundtrip. Good luck!

I'd also suggest Ben Cosgrave. I bought the remains of his 230SL recently and found him both fair and very knowledgeable, he offered me the inspection service so I'm sure he'd oblige for a small fee.
