Your XJS and scratch repair
Here is how we handle scratch repair for the 1985 Jaguar XJS: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. 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
As a small 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.
The request
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
A car while yours is in
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
On the day
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Planning around the work
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
Keeping it that way
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
How the price is set
We price the job before we start, never after. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
