Alignment garage Wiltshire

Chaps

Can anyone recommend a decent garage in the Wiltshire/Gloucestershire area to get laser four wheel alignment done?

Could pop it into ATS or something but would rather have it done somewhere recommended.

Cheers

My local auto shop does wheel alignment but he is normally running on a two week waiting list.

However in my day Jon we had to use sh1t fit who are truly shocking, we now have to use ATS who I am happy to say are excellent
And Swmbo is taking my truck to our local ATS this Friday

Yeah called ATS, he said they had four wheel laser alignment but as the rear was fixed they would only do front toe adjustment, not camber or castor.

I'm not sure if I'll need the camber or castor adjusted but he seemed unsure of what was possible on the truck as 'they don't get many in'.

Ask for rich, tell him James from the prelude forum sent you. He should be able to sort you out. He does a mean geo on my cars and understands it way further than the figures on the screen. They race and win in a number of race cups.

They are jap race prep and fabrication specialists but take work of all kinds.

Sweird I spoke with ATS and they said alignment would be £39 and from that they would do a report and if camber castor needed adjusting then it would total out at £89
Sweird again as I was left with the impression that it was no problemo

Mind you Fairford is only the other side of the A417......

Hmm, yeah spoke to the chaps at Fairford, unfortunately they aren't open on Saturdays and I can't get the time off work to leave it with them for long enough on a weekday (he said they'd need it for up to three hours, and if it wasn't finished by home time I'd have to just come back for it the next day). All very well but then I'd have no way of getting home!

ATS are open Saturday mornings and didn't have a huge waiting list which is convenient, but don't seem too clued up by the sounds of things. That said, they did say they would get all the alignment checked with the lasers for free, then if I wanted/needed toe adjustment it would be £45. Might be worth at least getting it measured up... he didn't seem to think they'd have the right equipment if it needed camber / castor adjustment though.

Took it to Imperial Tyres in the end - I can highly recommend them. £80, Saturday morning, job done.

Took mates surf into kwikfit in Chippenham, they got a new hunter or something alignment system. Was spot on. Think was 75 notes for toe and camber

Ball of string, bar of metal and spirit level, there is your toe and camber sorted (assuming you know how to adjustnit) for nothing
