Very expensive to put up an ad compared to the price when it started and Facebook market place is free so its always the first place anybody puts an ad

While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

Written by the company
DoneDeal Cars is Ireland’s favourite place to buy a car (Human8, Independent Research, 2026), with 2.2 million people using DoneDeal Cars every month and 3.5 million across DoneDeal overall. For over 20 years, DoneDeal has been part of homes, farms and families, a place where people have bought and sold everything from kitchen tables to farm machinery to cars. That’s where DoneDeal began: Ireland’s general marketplace, connecting communities across the country. But Ireland has evolved. And so has DoneDeal. We’ve grown from a general buy-and-sell site into Ireland’s largest car marketplace, built for everyone from learners to lifelong drivers. Today, DoneDeal Cars is Ireland’s number one car marketplace, with more new and used cars for sale from dealerships than any other site. With over 86,000 cars available, 80% are listed by dealerships, and many are now DoneDeal Cars Trusted Dealers, offering warranties, verified history checks and top-rated service, so peace of mind comes as standard. Behind DoneDeal Cars is a team across Ireland focused on making car buying better, safer and simpler. Because buying a car should feel this good.

I’ve never come across a worse website for searching cars. It honestly feels like it was built by incompetent developers.

There are too many old ads
There are too many old ads. Some ads are up to a year old.

Thanks for the feedback — that's a fair point.
Ads on DoneDeal run for 72 days, after which they expire automatically. Sellers can bump their ad to renew the time limit, which also confirms the item is still available. If you spot anything that looks like it's been sitting up longer than it should, please report it directly and our team will take a look.
If your experience was otherwise positive, we'd love it if you considered updating your rating.

Thanks for the feedback — making things harder to use is the last thing we want, especially for something as straightforward as searching for bikes.
We'll make sure this gets to the right team. In the meantime, if you'd like a hand navigating the new layout, feel free to reach out at hello@donedeal.ie and we'll walk you through it.
If things improve for you, we'd love it if you considered updating your rating.

Thanks for the three stars — and we hear you on the cost.
Fees represent a small percentage of your item's value and help you reach Ireland's largest buying audience. With 3M+ monthly users and 1,000+ cars sold daily, listings on DoneDeal sell faster and for more — so the value is real.
If you'd like to talk through your options, we're at hello@donedeal.ie. And if your experience was otherwise positive, we'd love it if you considered updating your rating.

In the meantime, if it keeps happening please get in touch at hello@donedeal.ie and we'll look into it for you.
