We gathered some questions for when selecting the right workshop for your car. It will involve some critical thinking because we like to help you about your choices when it comes to getting your car repaired. It is your call essentially who repairs your car, even though it might sound different when you make a claim. Definitely good to know your rights.

Here are some things to consider:

  • Did your friends and family recently have a car repaired? Did they have a good experience?
  • When is the next availability to book your car in?
  • Does the shop offer lifetime warranty?
  • Is the shop member of the Motor Trade Association and other groups like Car Craft?
  • Does the shop hold all current qualifications for their staff and tradesmen?
  • When making the claim – does the claims manager seem very eager to get your car into one specific shop?
  • In a scenario where you do have a choice to pick your own shop, what qualities do you look for?
  • How does the insurance benefit in sending you to their preferred repairer?
  • Why would an insurance prefer one shop over another?
