Had my roadster aligned here last week. He let me watch the whole process and explained everything he was doing and what each check was for, was very interesting.
You also get a print out before and after showing what has been changed on the car and the exact measurements.
The car drove so much better afterwards, a big difference.
Highly recommended.

Yes it's the hunter system. It is a £69 but he had to charge £75 as he had to heat up 2 nuts to get them free which I thought was fair enough.

Heard good things about this place. I think some of the dealers on Leeds road use them.

I had my Z4 alignment done there last year, good guy. Also had to charge me extra as the tie rod ends were seized solid. But he managed to get them loose, without damage, so no replacement.

The Hunters machine he uses is a Hawkeye Elite TD system, better than some of the other places i have used in the past, but the equipment is only as good as the person using it !

Definitely felt an improvement, mostly on motorways, with less tramlining, but also at higher speeds the car feels a little more stable.
