Audi Athlone held the official launch event for its brand new state-of-the-art showroom on Friday the 9th of May. A host of well-known faces from the world of sport and entertainment were on hand to mark the official launch.
Situated on the old Dublin Road, the €4.4 million 12 car showroom forms part of Audi Ireland’s €80 million investment in its dealer network with further openings planned later in the year.
