Know your legal rights
Your Car. Your Right to Choose Your Repairer
After an accident, you might feel pressured to use your insurance company’s recommended repairer, but it’s your legal right to choose where your vehicle is repaired! Regardless of what your insurer may suggest, the final decision on where your car is repaired is entirely yours.
At XL Motors, while our car repair services are approved by most insurers, some insurance companies might steer you towards one of their ‘approved’ repairers. But remember, these recommendations are often driven by cost considerations rather than quality.
Insurers may prioritise getting repairs done at the lowest possible price, without caring as much about the quality of the repair as you do – and so do we! Contact XL first after an accident for expert advice and support.
Why Choose XL Motors?
Your insurers recommended repairer may not have official manufacturer approvals or hold the prestigious BS10125 accreditation for vehicle body repairs – ensuring that repairs are carried out following strict guidelines, using the right tools, parts, and techniques - both of which we proudly maintain here at XL Motors in Coventry.
Next time you’re involved in an accident, remember: it’s your legal right to choose who repairs your vehicle. Call XL Motors first for professional, manufacturer-approved repairs that put quality and safety above everything.
