Will I be able to get a 2014 Peugeot deal from this dealer?

Hi, can you tell me exactly what an independent Peugeot dealer is? And will the garage look after warranty etc? I'm specifically interested in Tom Raferty cars in Athlone. I'm wondering if Peugeot has special deals for 2014 such as maybe one year's free road tax or a gift voucher etc. Does an independent dealer do the same? They are not listed on Peugeot's website as a dealer.

Hi Ian,

We checked this query out with Peugeot Ireland and received this response:

"Please be advised that Tom Raftery Car Sales Shannonbridge & Athlone is not an Authorised Peugeot Dealer for Peugeot New Vehicle Sales, Parts or Aftersales. As we are no longer in contract with Tom Raftery Car Sales, he cannot look after warranty or deliver new Peugeot vehicles or represent himself as an Authorised Peugeot Dealer. Therefore he will not be in a position to offer you any Peugeot special deals for 2013/2014."

"We most certainly will have consumer offers across a number of Peugeot passenger car models for orders pre-Christmas and these offers will be announced in the coming weeks."

In the meantime, please consult our website www.peugeot.ie for your closest Authorised Peugeot Dealer and sincere thanks for considering the Peugeot brand."
