Autopoint wins national sales award for fourth time

A Tralee-based car dealer is celebrating after winning a national award for the fourth time.
Autopoint Motor Group was last week named by the Society of the Irish Motor Industry (SIMI), as the ‘Independent Sales Operations of the Year'.
The SIMI awards ceremony was held in the Clayton Hotel Dublin hosted by comedian Oliver Callan.
Presentations on the night were made by Brian Cooke, Director General of SIMI, and Managing Director of Bank of Ireland, Dermot McDermot.
Autopoint, which has grown from strength to strength since it was founded, previously won the award in 2016, 2018 and 2020.
"It's a fantastic award for the team who have worked extremely hard and continue to show exemplary customer service in difficult and challenging times," Managing Director, Brian Hanafin, said.
"Selling cars online was a real lifesaver for us during the pandemic. We are humbled and honoured to get recognition from the Irish motoring industry once again. I’m sure there’s room for improvement so we’ll continue to strive to maintain the highest standards of customer service.”
Autopoint Motor Group offers a wide range of high quality pre-owned cars and commercials, from €5,000 starter cars to €100,000 sports cars.
"We have helped so many customers get approved for car finance, and customers that may have had difficulty in the past. Visit us at www.autopointmotorgroup.com."

Needless to say we all know what cellulite looks like, but there are many ways to reduce its appearance and help us look and feel better about it.
Yes, people often assume it’s down to a weight issue but it is associated with diet and exercise. It can affect all ages, male and female. There are many ways to help reduce and eliminate it.
Nothing can substitute for eating a healthy diet and getting enough exercise. Just as with other signs of ageing, cellulite is best managed first and foremost by focusing on maintaining a healthy weight long term. But certain topical treatments may help it become less noticeable and improve skin’s overall appearance, if used regularly. Dry body brushing is one technique to try by brushing upwards every day towards the heart for increased blood circulation.
Using anti-cellulite products can help if you are doing regular exercise and watching your diet, but if you feel you need a boost to get you headed in the right direction, there is a few different salon treatments that can be of benefit.
The Universal Contour Body Wrap is a great treatment which results in inch loss due to the detoxing effect of the sea clay or also the Electro Cellulite Massage rollers (ECM) by CACI Machine, which is a 12-session course over four weeks, this is recommended for desired results.
Pilates is always an amazing lifestyle choice. Having the toning tables for the past 30 years in Killarney, we are lucky to hear the amazing results from our clients past and present. Some have even been with us since we started! The male and female reviews have reported reduced cellulite with weekly appointments, improved posture, increased energy and mostly reduced cellulite.

Two Kerry-based car dealers are part of a national campaign to provide essential aid for Ukraine.
Donagh Hickey Motors in Rathmore and Adam’s of Tralee are the two local garages that have signed up for the project.
Under the scheme, the garages will be used as collection hubs for essential equipment that will be transported to the war torn country.
“We have a very large and loyal customer base and we are appealing through them to make donations,” Adam’s of Tralee General Manager, Marcus O’Shea, told the Killarney Advertiser.
“Any dealer could have signed up for this but we are one of only two in Kerry to do so.”
The garages, following advice from humanitarian agencies in Ukraine, have created a very specific list of what is urgently needed out there.
These include generators, solar battery chargers, batteries, power banks, flashlights, drones and tablets.
Medical equipment like First Aid kits (NATO standard) and other medical items are also sought.
People can assist by either dropping goods to the two garages or by making a donation via www.safeharbourforukraine.org.
