The work on your A8
This page covers scratch repair for the 1999 Audi A8, and a rental while the car is with us. 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.
The car itself
Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Getting a quote
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
Keep your week on track
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
After the work
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
What affects the price
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
Getting the car ready
Ask any question you have before the work starts. 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.
