The loan vehicle was adequate although my car is electric and they didn't have an electric offering but got me from A to B. Repairs were like new and car was clean on it's return.

As far as the repair to my vehicle was…
As far as the repair to my vehicle was concerned, it looks as good as new, very happy. However, my car is my pride and joy which I have professionally valeted inside and out once a month, I keep the inside in pristine condition at all times. When I picked it up it was dirty muddy and dusty inside, even the seats were dirty and the pedals were caked in mud, really ruined everything for me to see it so un looked after inside

Hi Treena, we're really sorry to hear that. The site does get muddy at this time of year, and I've sent a message to our team to make sure drivers are more mindful of this.
In the meantime, if you bring the car back to us we will valet it again for you, simply contact us on leicester@fixauto.co.uk if you'd like us to do this. Again, please accept our apologies, as there shouldn't ever be this amount of mud inside a car that we've repaired.
Constant communication
Constant communication, very helpful over the phone. Have done an amazing job fixing my car.

Hi Catherine, thank you so much for your review! We're pleased the repair experience was a good one.
Car took far longer than expected
Edited to include Christmas holidays; including Christmas day, Boxing Day and New Years Day it was in for 19 working days. I didnt include those in original post as I automatically assumed nobody would be working those days.
Car was booked in for 9 working days. It ended up being in for 16 working days as they broke the fan to the air con. It has made the whole experience quite stressful. On the plus, it came back lovely and clean, except for the muddy pedals from the man who drove it back 😆

Hi Tammy, a lot of those 'working days' fell over the Christmas holidays - we were closed on the 25th, 26th Dec and 1st Jan as they're public holidays. We're sorry your car took longer than expected, but we are always really transparent about our working hours during the Christmas holidays and how we only have skeleton staff working between Xmas and New Year. We communicate this online and in our reception.
Your vehicle had already been estimated when it was recovered to us on 19/12, and parts were delivered on 23/12. Once repairs were completed, we identified an issue with the cooling fans. We checked with you to establish whether this was a pre-existing issue and were advised that it was not, so we carried out further investigations. This doesn't mean that we 'broke the fan' – sometimes unexpected issues crop up during a repair, and we always have to check whether it was pre-existing, or caused by the accident, or would have naturally happened due to the lifespan on some parts.
The vehicle was subsequently returned on 13/01. We apologise for the muddy pedals, but as for the rest of your complaint, we could not have fixed the car any faster and are always transparent with customers about timescales.
Edited reply: We'll have to agree to disagree here Tammy, as I end up with a completely different calculation – 15 working days if you include Friday 19th Dec when we'd only just received the car. We closed early at 2pm on the 24th and 31st Dec too. The 9 working days you were booked in for is always an estimate only, and is subject to change if parts are delayed, or we discover something isn't working along the way, as happened in your case.
Superb work carried out by the team!
Want to say a huge thank you to the Fix Auto Leicester, especially Laura, Paula, Naomi and April. My BMW was damaged and the team carried out an amazing job and returned the vehicle promptly. From start to end the process was clear and always felt very welcome when attending the site. Great work from all team members.
Thank you once again for a superb service provided by all.
Mr Dhillon.

Fabulous service
Car was collected promptly, and provided with a lovely courtesy car. Driver was friendly. Staff in reception were always polite and helpful when I called and when I went to collect the car they had not only fixed it but valeted it as well
Wonderful job thank you

Thank you Cliff for your review, we really appreciate it.
worst repair experience ever
This was the worst repair experience I have ever had, taking almost 6 months for very minor damage, and the final result not being satisfactory. Zero stars would be given if it was an option. I now feel I understand why car insurance is so expensive given the amount of time which is wasted in the repair process.

Hi Gareth,
I've spoken to the front office about what happened here, and without passing the buck, it sounds like the issue was mostly with your insurance company due to their lack of response with authorising repairs.
I can assure you it's very unusual for a repair to take this long, usually they are completed within days (although any parts delays add on time), so we can only apologise that you didn't have the best experience with us. We have completed all work to the best of our ability and any further issue now rests with VW and your insurer unfortunately.
For context, your vehicle was recovered into site on the 26/6/25. It was estimated on 30/6/25, and needed an inspection so we had to chase insurers to authorise repairs on several occasions.
Authority was finally received 15/9/25 (11 weeks later), it was this that caused such a massive delay.
The vehicle then had to go to a VW dealership to determine the issues as it was a nonstarter. It came back on site 31/10 and all mechanical work completed. We had to await further parts, which arrived on 21/11 (a further 3 week delay).
Extra work was then completed on the near side of the vehicle that was not part of the accident. Repairs were completed on 27/11 and we delivered the vehicle back, however you rejected it, and the drivers had to bring it back on site.
We understand your complaint was with the door trim not being attached, and the door skin not welded correctly. Our Bodyshop manager discussed with you how the door was provided from the dealership and that is how they come, and that the next steps were to take the vehicle yourself to VW.
We informed the insurance company, and they informed you that we had done the work, and no further work was going to be completed. We returned the vehicle back to you again on Wednesday.
Excellent Service and Customer Care
All the staff went out of their way to help us and repair our car despite difficulties with our insurance company. We were never made to feel that the delay was our fault, they were completely helpful throughout the whole process.
Added to that when it came time to collect our car the work had been completed to an exceptional standard.
A wonderful company to deal with.
