The work on your i3
Book windshield repair for the 2016 BMW i3, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. A small chip in the windshield can often be repaired before it spreads into a crack.
The car itself
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Why prices differ
A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
Looking after it afterwards
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
On the day
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
How long it takes
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
