A new report by the Society of the Irish Motor Industry in association with DoneDeal has shown that new car sales in Mayo have increased by 27 per cent for the first half of 2014.
The Second Quarter Motor Industry Review for 2014, compiled by economist Jim Power, shows that 1,283 cars have been sold in Mayo in the first six months of the year, compared with just 1,010 for the first half of 2013.
The figures show that the industry is continuing to bounce back after six years of a downturn.
