Electric and hybrid vehicles can be built differently from conventional vehicles, with different materials, joining methods, structural designs and high-voltage systems to consider.

Superb service for my dented Tesla. The team were efficient and professional from my initial inquiry right up until the day I picked my car up. Loved the bonus clean!

Pania Gray · Google review

Friendly and excellent communication at each step, from assessment to booking in, and they finished a day before the estimated pick-up time. Flawless repair - the car looks brand new.
