7,500 dodgy cars brought from UK each year
Around 7,500 cars brought into Ireland from Britain every year have either been written off, stolen, or scrapped there, according to the vehicle checking company MyVehicle.ie.
In 2014, there was a total of 49,945 imported cars from the UK, with more than 15% having some type of hidden history, which can go unnoticed without the use of a vehicle history check, said Justin Kavanagh, MD of MyVehicle.ie, who believes Irish consumers need to be careful about purchasing a UK import.
