The work on your 626
For paint work on the 1996 Mazda 626, 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.
Your 626, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
The request
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Keep driving meanwhile
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Planning around the work
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
What affects the price
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
What to bring
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
After the work
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
