We now have a new website at www.garage-equipment.ie

This domain name was initially bought due to the nature of the actual name rather than the idea to put up a whole new site and we just re-directed it to the AutoQuip site. Then my brother introduced me to Joomla and after he did the initial setup, I added in a few products then pretty much decided to add in all the major products from AutoQuip.

Some benefits to this site are that you can create a user name and when you log in, you get all the prices for each product you look at. It's a little bit of a trade off that you give me some personal details and I give you what most garage equipment sites like this do not i.e. online prices. Don't worry, we won't be spamming any email addresses with advertising etc. The site is set up with VirtueMart but the shopping cart is actually inactive. I hope to change this soon but the majority of this equipment is bought over the phone rather than online so it won't be a major problem if it never becomes active. We are also working on a shopping cart for the AutoQuip site so hopefully this will be running very shortly. The Joomla interface is very nice to use but can be a bit tricky at times. I'm sure most of that is down to my own lack of experience but I'm learning at a fast pace !

It's using the Mynxx template which is fully customisable so if I ever get bored of the look of it, I can change around the structure, colours, menus etc. very easily. I'm very pleased with the way it's turned out and I hope you find it useful. Of course, I also hope you buy something from it

So, if anyone would like to take a look at the new site, just click the link above. Here's a screen shot of the home page.

Thanks,

Richie.
