The work on your 9-3
For paint work on the 2011 Saab 9-3, 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.
Size and finish
As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. 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.
Keep your week on track
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Pricing, plainly
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
On the day
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
After the work
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
Timing
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
