Paint touch up: your Vantage
For the 2012 Aston Martin Vantage, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What happens after you ask
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Ask anything about the work in the request. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Driving while yours is in
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
What to bring
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Aftercare
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
Planning around the work
We keep you posted if the timing changes. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
How the price is set
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
