Booking the work for the Cooper
The 2002 MINI Cooper needs rust repair? Send photos and when it suits you. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request.
Driving while yours is in
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
What affects the price
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Getting the car ready
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
When the car is ready
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
Aftercare
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
Still deciding?
Start with photos and a short description.
