SMART Protect
Scuffs, dents, chips and scratches these types of minor damage occur regularly to your customer’s vehicles.
Most customers would have experienced “parking” damage carried out by a third party.
Customers can contact their motor insurer to have the damage repaired, but this would attract their insurance policy excess, effect no claims bonus and possibly increase premiums for subsequent road risk, insurance cover.
The alternative for the customer is to leave the damage unrepaired and this will affect the part exchange price when the vehicle is traded in..........with you!
