Through road, lanes and vineyards: bodywork for Twann and Tüscherz

Twann, Tüscherz and Alfermée are wine villages between the lake and the Jura slope, cut through by the railway and the road. Through traffic runs right through the middle of densely built Twann, and anyone driving to a house among the vines or up to Gaicht often manoeuvres in tight spaces. That leads to the damage we know from this area: a rear-end bump in queuing traffic, a scraped door or wing, a knocked-off wing mirror or an alloy wheel marked by a kerb.

Small dents without paint damage are removed by paintless dent repair; scratches and scrapes are fixed with spot repair or a partial respray in the original colour. After an accident we straighten or replace the affected parts and repaint them in the original colour. If a lease return is coming up, we assess beforehand which marks are worth putting right.

From Gaicht to Alfermée: how your car gets to Biel and back

You show us the damage online first: upload the vehicle registration and a few photos of the damage and that is it. On working days you receive an indicative quote including VAT by e-mail within 24 hours, without having to drive to Biel. For the repair you bring the car in yourself or, on request, we collect it in Twann, Wingreis, Tüscherz, Alfermée, Gaicht or on the Twannberg and bring it back repaired.

If you bring the car in yourself, the train is an option for the way back: Twann has a station on the Biel–Neuchâtel line. If you depend on a car, for example to get to work or out to the vineyard, a courtesy car is available on request for the duration of the repair. It is best to tell us when you report the damage, so we can plan it for your appointment.

Insurance, hail and language: what applies in Twann-Tüscherz

We bill every insurer directly and handle the cost approval and any assessment for you. After hail, report the damage to your insurer and send us the claim number with photos; dents without paint damage are removed without respraying and the original paint is preserved. Hail is generally covered by partial comprehensive insurance, but your policy is what counts. If your policy charges a higher excess for a free choice of repairer than at the partner garage, we cover the difference.

Twann-Tüscherz is mainly German-speaking, is called Douanne-Daucher in French and borders Lamboing on the French-speaking Plateau de Diesse. We advise you in German or French, by phone on 032 552 00 03, by e-mail and at the workshop in Biel.

Servicing, MFK (roadworthiness test) preparation, tyres and mechanical work are handled by our sister company at the same address: Garage K.I., your car garage for Twann-Tüscherz.

Save up to CHF 1'000

The same excess as at your insurer’s partner garage

Many policies charge a higher excess if you do not go to the insurer’s partner garage. With us you still pay only the excess you would have there: we cover the difference. That way you save up to CHF 1'000 and still choose your body shop freely.

CHF 50 less

CHF 50 less than your partner garage’s quote

Bring the written quote of a partner garage or an independent body shop for the same repair: we do it CHF 50 cheaper, for example CHF 450 instead of CHF 500, incl. VAT.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a Carrosserie K.I. workshop on the left shore, in Twann or Tüscherz?

+

No. Our only workshop is at Südstrasse 2 in Biel, around 10 kilometres and about 13 minutes from Twann. You do not need to come in for a quote: with the online damage report and a few photos you receive an indicative quote including VAT within 24 hours on working days. For the repair we collect the car from you on request.

Do you also collect my car in Gaicht or on the Twannberg?

+

Yes, on request, just as in Twann, Kleintwann, Wingreis, Tüscherz and Alfermée. We collect the vehicle at the agreed time and return it after the repair. On request we provide a courtesy car for the duration of the work. Mention both in the online damage report or give us a call.

Someone ran into the back of my car on the road through Twann. What happens next?

+

Record the accident on the European accident report form and take photos. In a rear-end collision the at-fault driver's liability insurance generally pays, but the circumstances and the policies are what count. Send us the details and photos through the online damage report: we agree the repair with the insurer concerned and bill them directly.

I found a dent on my car after parking it in Twann, with no note from whoever did it. Who pays?

+

If the culprit is unknown, generally only comprehensive cover that includes parking damage applies, but your policy is what counts. Send us photos: a parking dent can often be removed without repainting, and the indicative quote shows you whether it is worth claiming on your insurance or paying for it yourself.
