Abstract: Previously one of the authors constructed uncountable families of groups of type $FP$ and of $n$-dimensional Poincar'e duality groups for each $ngeq4$. We strengthen these results by showing that these groups comprise uncountably many quasi-isometry classes. We deduce that for each $ngeq4$ there are uncountably many quasi-isometry classes of acyclic $n$-manifolds admitting free cocompact properly discontinuous discrete group actions.
