Our part and the shop's part
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.

We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used.
Between shop visits
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
