TRAINED SPECIALISTS

We take pride in our reputation for delivering exceptional customer service and high-quality workmanship. Our approach is clear, helpful, and transparent—especially when you need it most.

As modern vehicles are equipped with highly sensitive sensors and radars for both active and passive safety features, it’s more important than ever to choose a Kia or Volkswagen-approved repairer. Even the smallest repair may require system resets to ensure everything functions correctly when you need it.

Kia and Volkswagen Group repair methods demand the highest standards. With this in mind, we have recently invested in cutting-edge Spies Hecker environmentally approved water-based paint technology, which provides unmatched paint accuracy and quality, even for the smallest areas.

Our Volkswagen and Kia-trained Paint and Body Technicians exclusively use Volkswagen and Kia-specified paint and parts. Why compromise the appearance, efficiency, and resale value of your vehicle by choosing an independent repairer? Unlike others, we can reinstate your warranty by using genuine parts and approved paint.



QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CUSTOMER COMMITMENT

Once your repairs are completed, you will receive a Branded Repair Guarantee Certificate from either Kia, OMODA & JAECOO, or Volkswagen. This ensures that you can drive away with confidence, knowing your vehicle has been repaired to the high standards expected from both brands, and that your factory warranty remains fully protected.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

We believe that exceeding customer expectations is key to building loyalty, which is why customer satisfaction is a top priority for us. To continuously improve our service, we actively encourage our customers to participate in Kia and Volkswagen surveys, allowing us to enhance our customer care at all levels.


Volkswagen Ensurance

We understand that being involved in an accident and having to deal with lots of companies can be really stressful and time consuming. That’s why Volkswagen have designed Ensurance to take care of everything for you.

  • A dedicated claims manager will be available for you to contact 24 hours a day, they will look after the entire claim from start to finish, liaising with your motor insurer, any third parties and our Volkswagen Insurance approved repairers.
  • They will also arrange for your vehicle to be recovered and taken to a Volkswagen Insurance approved repairer to be repaired by Volkswagen trained technicians who will only use Volkswagen parts and paints. And where possible, we make sure the repairer provides you with a courtesy car to keep you on the road.

Ensurance is now free to all Volkswagen customers for three years. It only takes a minute to get cover, simply go to www.volkswagen_ensurance.co.uk/getcover and add your name, contact and vehicle details. Once you’ve activated Ensurance, if you need to report an accident call us first on 03330 433781
