Booking the work for the 5000

Collision centre for your 1981 Audi 5000? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request.

The car itself

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

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. You can add a rental to the same request.

Keep driving meanwhile

Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.

After the work

Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.

When the car is ready

Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.

On the day

Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.

How the price is set

We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.

Still deciding?

Want a quote? A request with a few photos is the fastest way.
