We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
Looking after it afterwards
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
On the day
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
