Accident Management in London & Surrey

One call after an accident in London. We coordinate recovery, marque-correct repair and a replacement vehicle — and introduce you to a regulated accident management partner who handles the claim.

Recovery arranged same day where possible You choose the repairer, not your insurer Replacement vehicle arranged

After a shunt, the car is the least of it

The damage is rarely the hard part. What follows is: getting the car off the road safely, finding somewhere secure to put it, working out whether to claim at all, arguing about which bodyshop touches it, and finding something to drive in the meantime. Most of that lands on you at the worst possible moment.

ACR Automobile takes the vehicle side off your hands. We arrange recovery, move the car into secure storage while decisions are made, place the repair with a bodyshop equipped for your marque, oversee the work and return the car to you. Where a claim is involved we introduce you to our accident management partner, who is regulated to handle claims and deals with that side directly with you and your insurer.

You choose who repairs your car

This is the part most owners do not realise. Your insurer will steer you firmly towards their approved repair network, because it is cheaper for them. You are not obliged to accept it. You have the right to nominate your own repairer, and on a prestige or performance car that matters — panel gaps, colour match on a difficult metallic, ADAS recalibration after a screen or bumper, aluminium structure, and genuine rather than pattern parts. A poor repair follows the car for the rest of its life and shows up in every inspection and every sale.

Questions

Frequently asked

What should I do straight after an accident?
Make sure everyone is safe and the vehicle is not obstructing traffic. Take photographs of the scene, the damage and the other vehicle, and exchange details — name, address, registration and insurer. Do not admit liability at the roadside. Then call us and we will arrange recovery.
Do I have to use my insurer’s approved repairer?
No. Your insurer will steer you towards their approved network because it costs them less, but you are entitled to nominate your own repairer. On a prestige or performance car that is usually the better decision, and we will place the work with a bodyshop properly equipped for your marque.
Do you handle the insurance claim yourselves?
No, and we are careful about this. Claims management is a regulated activity. We coordinate the vehicle — recovery, storage, repair and a replacement — and introduce you to an FCA-regulated accident management partner who handles the claim with you and your insurer directly.
Can I get a replacement vehicle?
In most non-fault cases, yes, and often a like-for-like one rather than whatever is on the forecourt. This is arranged through our accident management partner and depends on the circumstances of the accident.
What if the accident was not my fault?
Then you should not be out of pocket. Non-fault claims are where an accident management partner earns their keep — recovery, a replacement vehicle and repair can usually be arranged without you paying your excess or losing your no-claims. Tell us what happened and we will explain your options.
Will you recover my car from anywhere?
We arrange recovery across London, Surrey and the Home Counties as standard, and further afield where needed — including from the roadside, a police compound or a recovery agent’s yard.
My car has ADAS — does that change the repair?
Yes, significantly. Cameras and radar behind screens, grilles and bumpers must be recalibrated after repair or replacement, or driver-assistance systems can read the road incorrectly. We only place this work with bodyshops set up to recalibrate properly and document it.
