Bought my first financed car through Bright Motor Group and they were fantastic throughout the process. Des and Neal were very professional, helpful and kind to deal with and I found they were extremely happy to answer any questions that I had.

My personal experience with Bright Bray and dealing with Cormac Gaffey was and is Top Class. From the first day of purchasing (2021) until today (2025) Cormac has been always super helpful and I can not recommend him highly enough. Top Class Top Man Cormac

I viewed and test drove a car priced at €14,500, agreed a trade-in of €800 for my own car, and negotiated a final total of €12,500 with Neil. We shook hands on this deal. I secured a loan, arranged insurance transfer for the date & time we had organised for collection and arrived with a bank draft only to be told the price was suddenly back up to €14,500. Neil claimed he "didn’t remember" our agreement, despite multiple phone calls that week confirming details. He never contacted me to inform me of any price change, despite having all my contact details [mobile/ email/ address]. When I asked to speak to the owner, Des, he left me waiting for nearly an hour. When he did eventually speak with me, he backed Neil without question. I even witnessed Neil pull Des aside for a private conversation before that meeting. I now have a loan and no car, paid to swap insurance twice, had to return to the bank to cancel a draft, and to top it all off when refunding my deposit, Neil accidentally charged me an extra €500, leaving me waiting again to get my own money back. This experience was stressful, financially damaging, and completely avoidable. If this is how Bright Citroën Bray under Neil Meade [salesman] and Des Fitzpatrick [branch owner] conducts business, I would strongly advise others to take their custom elsewhere. Shocking lack of professionalism, integrity, and accountability. A handshake & verbal agreement should mean something. Clearly, it doesn't here. --- Reply to the response from the owner: Your response is not only inaccurate, it’s insulting. The €12,500 deal, including my €800 trade-in, was clearly agreed & shook upon. I rearranged my finances, secured a loan, paid for insurance changes, and showed up with a bank draft, only to be met with denial & deflection. Neil had ample opportunity to be honest. Instead, I was blindsided. This wasn’t a “misunderstanding”. It was a bait-and-switch, a deliberate U-turn, handled with zero integrity or respect for my time & money. The lack of accountability and basic professionalism here is astounding.

Neal worked so hard for us to get our new car, cant fault his efforts and ethics. Trade in and taking new vehicle went so easily. Highly recommend

Bought a Kuga from Neal in Bright Motor Group Bray. Very happy with the purchase. Great communication and very professional.
