The work on your 5000
For your 1981 Audi 5000, collision repair starts with a short request. 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.
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. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Getting a quote
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Ask anything about the work in the request.
A rental while we work
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Keeping it that way
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
Planning around the work
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Getting the car ready
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Pricing, plainly
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
