Price on lazer alignment
 

I have recently had my alignment done and the bill was 144 quid :eek:

Is this the going rate?

Bout £60-80 more like it mate, I'd say!

Where was it done?
Around here it would be 85 - 95ish

It was a very reputable tuners (unfare to say)and I was under the impression that it would be around 80.00, however the bill is 80.00 for the Bosch machine plus labour and vat. I presumed this sort of job was a labour only work.?

Perhaps its worth a call to chech their prices.

You are not 'buying' the Bosch machine, are you? There is normally only a labour charge because the labour rates include the cost of their capital equipment (tools & machinery etc). £144 seems way over the top. A place local to me has a newish American 'Jim Beam' laser aligner and a full 3D alignment with all adjustments included and a 'before' and 'after' printout is £59 inc. VAT (a year ago). They also included wheel balancing in that, as a favour..

seems a bit steep that, mine worked out expensive cause i had it done, then changed my mind on lowering it and had the fast road settings done. (really should think things through first :wonder: )

I have rang them back and the price is 88.00 + 43.00 p/h for any adjustments. :(

Qualilty work at Prosport but a pricey I think.

Got mine done for £62 at xtreme scoobies! :)

Think that's about the same price I paid at RCM - IMHO You get what you pay for though...

Got mine done @ qwik fit woz £60 with print outs.
Only certain QF centres have the 4 wheel laser alignment tho.
Mine was done in altrincham.

Got mine done for £44+VAT. They spent over an hour on it and didn't charge any extra. This was in Norwich.

That's way over the top, surley it should be £88 all in??

Apparantly not.Funny thing is....... the car seems to drive the same as before I took it in, although I now have comfort in the knowledge it's now set up right.

Think mine was 65 + vat at Powerstation.
About 60 at Dastek.

144 is not just expensive, it's taking the p!sh. Didn't you ask the prices before-hand. I tend to ask about everything, even if it's inmaterial. Just so i know what's going on.

To be honest I'm in need of a service, mot, alignment and was thinking of going here to have it done, but at those prices I'm not too sure now! P.S. think I seen you Bob, coming down past where offerton house used to be?? couple of days ago!?!?!?

Ahh yes, I do recall seeing you also.:thumb:

Don't be put off with the prices as they have done some good work for me in the past and they are very good at what they do.

yeah, I posted a couple of weeks ago for some feedback from these guy's and it was all positive - really good in fact! Just out of interest do you know what to expect to pay for a service?

I paid 360.00 for the 30k service at Prosport, which at a main stealer was around 450.00.

Alignment for an Impreza from us is £70 +vat
Aditional costs might be a camber bolt or two in the rear if it warrants it.
They are £23.50+vat and £12.50+vat to fit.
