Compare Volvo accident repair quotes from specialist garages

Volvo manufactures safe and comfortable luxury vehicles, such as the XC40, the brand's best-selling model in the UK. Across the pond, Volvo is even more popular, resulting in numerous appearances in Hollywood films, from the V70 in World War Z to the 1972 Volvo 145 in Jobs. Back in the real world, the brand has led some important safety innovations in the automotive sector - notably with the invention of seat belts, which were first used in 1959. Volvo engineer Nils Bohlin gave the patent to the world in the name of safety, allowing other manufacturers to adopt the same system.

Car accident repair services ensure your car is repaired to the highest standard without compromising safety. Common types of damage following an accident are a missing/damaged bumper, cracked windscreen, car frame damage, scratches and disjointed doors. As such, repairs often include dent removal, body repairs, scratch removal, bumper repair and paintwork.

Minor crash repairs may involve purely cosmetic fixes. On the other hand, if your car sustains severe damage, the repair cost of which your insurance company deems high compared to the value of the vehicle, it may be written off. Category C and D (old salvage code) and N and S (new salvage code) write-offs can still legally be repaired, although the cost of doing so is usually high, and the value of the car will be diminished.

It isn't a good idea to do a car damage repair job if you're not a trained mechanic; instead, it's best to book an authorised car accident repair centre.
