Your 2002 BMW 3 Series: the work
For scratch repair on the 2002 BMW 3 Series, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. 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.
What your car means for the work
As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking the work
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
How long you are without it
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
After the work
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
How the price is set
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job.
What to bring
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Want a price?
Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
