Your 1 Series and scratch repair
Book scratch repair for the 2011 BMW 1 Series, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your 1 Series, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Length: 4.38 m. It fits most condo and driveway spots. There are 10 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Your request
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental means the work does not stop your week. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
How long you are without it
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
After the work
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
Before you drop the car off
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
Why prices differ
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Ready when you are
Book the work and a rental in one request.
