Collision centre: the 1998 Audi A6
Here is how we handle collision repair for the 1998 Audi A6: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work.
Your A6, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists it at 4.88 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Your request
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
A rental meanwhile
A rental means the work does not stop your week. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
What affects the price
The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.
Aftercare
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
What to bring
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.
Planning around the work
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
When you know your dates
Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
