Booking the work for the 9-5
Need scratch repair for your 1999 Saab 9-5? Tell us about the car and when suits you. 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 9-5, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Getting a price
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. You can add a rental to the same request.
Stay on the road
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. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
On the day
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Aftercare
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
What affects the price
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
When the car is ready
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
Ready to ask?
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
