Could anyone recommend a good place for a wheel alignment in devon/Cornwall don't need it weighted just set up right. Or should I just find a garage with hunter alignment..
Any idea of costs would be appreciated
Have used national tyre company's in the past but with coilovers and suspension upgrades want it right, thanks for any imput

Don't sweat on geometry too much. The Impreza has a forgiving chassis. There's totally no need to 'go to a specialist' any Hunter type garage should be ok. Comes down to the tech who is operating it and how keen they are to get the figures clean & equal
Even a 'poor' alignment will vastly improve the way an ill aligned scooby

I used ams in Torquay. The tech was really good, got the specs I gave him bang on. And for £120 they‘ll do 6 or 8 alignments over 2 years.

Thanks for the replies I'm in the middle of both of them so there not too far-away. Called a few places with hunter alignment and prices ranged from £20 per corner to £130 all in
And a high end performance garage I've been recommended were just shy of £200.
£80 or £200 will I notice a massive difference? christ I love sending my self round in circles. Think I'll put up another post to find the ideal settings for a 2004 forester sti on coilovers. Thanks again

I know it's a fat impreza. So the settings for a blob eye sti will be the same?

^ pretty much, yes

£200 for an alignment is totally taking the **** (I think Chevron, Stafford charge about this much - another 'high end' garage)

I thought £200was a tad expensive and I can spend what I save on petrol giving the fat old girl a bloody good drive, so I followed

Don't be put off by where Steven Hatton is based, or his love for derelict Mr2's; his alignment is fastidious.
