The news may be full of doom and gloom, especially in relation to the motor industry what with talk of VAT and motor tax rises, but finally some good news with the announcement from Ford regarding the opening of its new dealership in Rathfarnham.
Rathfarnham Ford is part of the Fort Motor Group and is located on the site of the old South Dublin Ford Centre on Whitechurch Road. The new dealership is headed up by Aidan Kane and brings with it employment for 20 people.
The modern showroom will cater for new and used car and commercial vehicle sales, as well as providing a complete service offering and a full range of parts for Ford and other makes.
"The greater Rathfarnham area has long been a strong one for Ford and I'm sure the local customers will welcome the return of a dealership in their area," comments Paul Molloy of the Fort Motor Group. "With more than half a century of experience behind us in the Group, these customers can be assured of the very best of service from the team on Whitechurch Road."
The Ford Open Event offers a range of special packages including extended warranty, servicing and roadside assistance or ultra-low 2.9 percent APR from Ford Credit for customers who order their 2012 Ford within a limited period.
