Went up to have a geo on my C63 by Wheel In Motion today.
Firstly, the system they have is seriously impressive and incredibly accurate, but more importantly, Tony is an incredibly nice guy, and really knows his stuff.
Dialled most of the rear toe-in out of my car (will make it a bit more pointy at the front, and reduce tyre a touch), and even on my drive home not pushing it hard, it was a HUGE improvement. This cost a grand total of £72.
For interest, despite my car being in amazing condition for a 4 year old C63, the rear was further toed-in than Merc tolerances officially allow, so I'd suggest others get theirs checked, even if you're not looking to turn it into an oversteer monster.
Strong recommendation from me.

I honestly didn't notice it pulling to the left, but then i have a feeling I would assume it was correct if it was just the road crown (if you see what i mean).
Before the adjustment the car's first transition was into understeer. Setting up into a corner right and a big boot of throttle would get it oversteering, but i hated the initial understeer. The front end is now much more direct, and now as you load up round a corner you feel it's the rear that's starting to go.
People spend so much money on making their cars look better, sound better, have a bit more power, it would amaze me if anyone didn't want to spend £70 to have it handling better!
