Hi,
I'm looking for somewhere in the Solihull/Birmingham/West Midlands area to carry out a full 4-wheel alignment check on my 06-plate Boxster. I've found several possible places via an internet search but would be grateful for any recommendations about who's good/bad/indifferent in terms of both service and cost. Solihull OPC have all the kit and could do it, but they're quite expensive so, ideally, I'd like to find somewhere which will do an excellent job at a lower price.
Any help/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mike
 
lower price !!!

I thought OPC was cheap at £120 for a full geo.

Centre gravity are £300 for a geo as an example.

What do you call expensive ?
 
Center Gravity will set it up as you want, irrespective of the time it takes.

It's £300 incl. VAT but this provides you with the vehicle's optimum settings and will include a full assessment of chassis condition.

Most people feel it is a good investment.

Regards,

Clive.
 
OPC set mine up how I wanted to my spec for £120 inc Vat though, that was my point.

What does the op call cheap if 1 group of people are more than happy to pay £300 for a geo and one groups want to pay £20.

Also 97% of Porsche out there will be using oem geo settings which you could say is optimum settings :).
As we all know no such thing as optimum settings, hence why Porsche own suit the cars they sell to the masses.

I can name 10 local motor sport places who will all do a geo.

 
I have never paid the first price quoted at Cardiff OPC, I have always managed to get something off. I paid £120 for mine to be done by them last year.
 
Interesting as this is my local OPC. Mind you still waiting for them to quote me for a pair of front tyres after they serviced it nearly 2 weeks ago!
