Has any one been to Elite to have their wheel alignment done?

Got car booked into Scoobysport for 45K service & have prob with my car pulling to the left all the time. Scoobysport dont have the equipment to do the lazer alignment so they suggested I go to Elite which is about another 20 mins down the road from them.

So thought I would take trip to them after my service & was just wondering if any one has any comments about the place?

Cheers

Thumbs up

I had "Prodrive" geometry settings done to mine there last year.

They seem like good guys, I think Keith is/was their scooby expert.

They charged me about £60 all in.

No complaints from me.

Cheers.

Steve.

I live within a few miles of them and got the Prodrive settings and wheel balance done there. Cost was £86.66 all in and you should get a before and after settings sheet. Service seems good and there has been no problems.
If you go take a look at all that alloy!

Thanks for your info guys.

Do they have different setup options for you to choose etc or did you just go there and say you wanted it set to certain settings which you already had?

Reason I ask is I aint got a clue what is standard settings and what aint!

Well think i will go see them then and see if they can cure my "pulling to the left" problem.

Cheers

I had my MY00 done there in the spring of 2000 and it may just have been a fluke but one of my front wheel ABS sensors wasn't working by the time it came off their rig. Don't know if they damaged it or it was a fluke one-off but I got it repaired under warranty so not the end of the world but a hassle none-the-less. I also wasn't too impressed by the appearance of the adjustment nuts after they had finished. They looked like they had used the wrong sized sockets!

Anyway, that was 2 1/2 years ago and I have got over it but wouldn't hurry back
