The 2012 MINI Cooper: Car repair

CarmaCars takes requests for body repair on the 2012 MINI Cooper, and rents you a car while yours is in. This is body repair. Mechanical work such as engines, brakes and oil changes is not part of it.

The car itself

If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. 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. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Ask anything about the work in the request.

Keep driving meanwhile

Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

A few things first

Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.

Looking after it afterwards

If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.

Why prices differ

The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.

How long it takes

We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.

Want a price?

Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.

Request car repair

Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
