I purchased a 2021 Mercedes GLC 300d from Kilmacanty Transport in December. The part I questioned most was the segregated business account because I'd never come across that when buying a car they explained their arrangement and provided the terms before I paid. Mine arrived when expected and I had Mercedes specialist look over it afterwards!

The issue is that there are so many phoney car and transportation websites these days that even legitimate companies end up looking suspicious when they use an unfamiliar buying process.

I'll add a less-than-perfect experience. I purchased a 2019 Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian through them a few weeks ago. Car eventually arrived and mechanically it was sound, but there were two scratches on the rear quarter that looked worse in person than they did in the photos

Right lads, update...

The imaginary Audi exists.

Arrived yesterday.

Driver rang about half an hour beforehand because our road is fairly tight and he wanted to check where he could unload.

Car looks exactly like the listing from what I can see. Interior is spotless and all the paperwork was together.

Not declaring it perfect yet though.

Mechanic has it tomorrow morning.

Mechanic has now had his fun!
Everything important checks out. Brakes, suspension, diagnostics, underneath etc all fine. He pointed out the front tyres probably have another year rather than the "loads of life" I'd convinced myself they had, but that's about it
