Yup.

A-Line is owned and operated by the 2 guys who used to be at Chemix.

I found them as the last time I went to Chemix I had a less than satisfactory handling car afterward and an almighty row with them about it.

A-Line are a fair bit cheaper and will only charge for the adjustments they make rather than a flat fee too.

Thanks everyone. Going to get it done at A-line in Dudley this weekend. Had a bit of a moment in the wet today, to be fair I think that was me being a bit heavy footed...plus the three different brands of tyres...and the rain...and the slippery leaves everywhere...eek

Tyres will be replaced this weekend too.

I've also used Chemix (Stourbridge) for over 20 years (everything from a 1300S Mark 1 Fiesta to my old E30 M3) - they have never let me down.

Sound blokes who deliver great service.

Yep same here, i was recommended to use A-Line off here earlier in the year as i too needed a check over.

Cant recommend highly enough, had a good half hour chat with car on the ramp being informed what was wrong and what was required to have it sorted and not charged the earth to have it done.

Wont be using anyone else from now on..

Dependant on your budget/requirements, BMTR in Perry Barr can also do this for you. They sorted out a troublesome 4x4 that I had in the past.

A-Line do have a good reputation on here, haven't used them yet, but maybe next time?

Tis a shame that Chemix now have blokes on the reception desk, instead of the girls frown
Still, at least they know what they're talking about!

The blond girl a few years ago was LOVELY (I wonder what happened to her?).
