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."
