Can I buy a car with cash?

Hello. I am going to live in Dublin and want to buy a car. May I ask if I can pay via cash for the transaction? Thanks.

Our answer:

Hi Lee,

The vast majority of car dealers are likely to accept cash, though it is worth checking before committing. Saying all that, we would suggest that a banker's draft would be safer than carrying around a lot of cash.
