Your 1985 Jaguar XJS: the work

For paint work on the 1985 Jaguar XJS, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.

About your XJS

A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.

From request to appointment

We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.

Stay on the road

Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.

Keeping it that way

A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.

Before you drop the car off

Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.

How the price is set

Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.

Timing

Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
