Unhappy

The wife was using my car and hit the kerb damaging the front and rear nearside wheels (had to by two new Radius R3's). The car is now very unpredictable when cornering and suspect some geometrical misalignmet. Can anybody recommend anywhere in the Glasgow area who can check/adjust four wheel alignment.

Was recommended in the Scotland section at some point in the last 20 days.

I would recommend Falkland. They made a great improvement to my wagon's stability!

Well it was done yesterday, took a bit longer than expected as the machine was being recallibrated (or whatever they do to it) before doing my car.
Car definately has more front end grip, and the nose is less prone to wandering wide on power out of corners, it does mean the back end of the car is a tad more lively, but definately a positive improvement. Only cost thirty odd quid too
