Paintwork repairs on lease car

[rajan2004]

Hi all,

We're returning our BMW 2 series to the lease company next month. As far as I'm aware, the only issues with it are 2 small scratches and one relatively longer one on the door (about 5cm or so).

I'm not sure what size of paint chips and scratches are deemed wear and tear. Does anyone know of a reliable, inexpensive company (who operate in Kent) who will touch up the areas that need attention in accordance with the BVRLA guidelines?

Presumably, it'll be cheaper to sort this out now than leave it to the lease company?

Thanks!

Ring the lease company and see if they have a fixed rate for repairs.
I was going to get my wheels refurbished, they were 19" and diamond cut. About £100 each. I rang the lease company. The fixed rate was £65 each. Plus they only charged me for 2 when all 4 had a level of damage....
