still amazes me how much main dealers can charge , can understand a few quid here and there but even if u paid £100 that still £250 over the odds
It's robbery - most of them don't have the equipment either. They just sub it out to the guy round the corner!

Living in Stockport you'd be better off using Fleet Maintenance in Reddish, they do all the alignment for local Guy Salmon. Mods:
Front Fogs + Halos
FBH Remote Control
The 1st Ever RRS Modded Grill
Garmin Nuvi + D4 Surround + Reversing Camera.
D4 Steering Wheel.
Rear Boot Spoiler.
Twin Brake Lights.
Wing Mirror Indicator Repeaters.
Long Roof Rails

I'm not scared, I'm outta here.

ur not wrong there , total rip off , they also asked if i wanted a diagnostic plugged in for an extra £120 inc vat
to think that would have been nearly a £500 bill, plus u know they would find something else

What Geoff. said. Used Topmarks for last 3 alignments and also a set of GG AT3s for good measure.
They use Hunter equipment and they are spot on and very honest about what you need - or not! Nowhere near the price main dealer quoted.

Just wondering what Top-Marks tyres charged you?
Bit of a drive for me, but i wasn't confident my local place knew what they were doing last time, so might be worth the few extra miles.
