Anyone know anywhere south/south west scotland that does proper 4 wheel alignment/geo set up.

Seems to be a bit of a void in the south, Every tyre place does your standard £20 front wheel ttracking etc but cant find anywhere to have a full set up done with hunter or similar. Particularly somewhere in the know that is happy to suggest some setups vs numbers on the machine.

Otherwise it looks like a trek up to automek or somewhere similar, And i think they book well in advance

Depends what you consider "South".

The Lexus dealer at Newbridge does it as checking the alignment is part of the major service for their vehicles. If you are really south you might find somewhere over the border.

Some Kwik-Fit branches have the hunter system but you would need to find one staffed by people who know what they are doing with it. On the plus side they will check it for free and you don't really have to buy a new exhaust and brake pads while it is in...

Again, Central Belt but Car Craft on Broxburn have done mine the past couple of times and I've been left very impressed by the knowledge, care exercised and the results. He's now my default 'go to' guy for any suspension / steering / alignment based issues that need resolved.
