Dunno if these guys have a facility near you, but they do 4 wheel alignment and used some decent gear too

STS Tyre Pros

Full geometry setup rather then the just wheel alignment

Not tried them but these guys near the Baltic do it Revolution Motorstore :: Alloy Wheels Tyres Auto Performance & Styling

also Hexham Horseless Carriage (TVR dealer in, er, Hexham) - probably very good but more expensive

Keep us updated as to what you do because its on my wish list.

Ros - how much do QSP charge?

It probably depends on what needs adjusting and how long it takes them to do it.

For a bit of reference, the place I trust to do any of my cars when I want a FULL alignment is called Track Torque near Tockwith. Probably a bit too far for you NE'ers, but the price is a standard £75 for alignment to factory spec (inc full printout) and then if you want anything adjusting afterwards, it's an hourly rate of around £45/hour.

See my post above. That's about the going rate for proper four wheel alignment.
