Booking the work for the MPV
For the 1997 Mazda MPV, body repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. This is body repair. Mechanical work such as engines, brakes and oil changes is not part of it.
The car itself
As a van, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
A rental meanwhile
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
How the price is set
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Timing
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
Getting the car ready
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Aftercare
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.

Ready when you are: send the details of the car.
