new wheel alignment near Edinburgh

Post by DJ » Sat Nov 28, 2015 11:01 pm

A garage opened up not far from me about 9 months/year ago and I stopped by for the first time today for a wee look as there are often some nice cars parked outside. Chap is an ex rally driver/mechanic who has moved from Dunbar area to bigger premises and we got talking and he showed me around. He has kitted out his garage with the latest Hunter alignment machine + a new tyre fitting machine - no metal arms so no risk of marking alloys and can take up to 26 inch rims for those who like their bling :)

Anyway, in and around the workshop was an Elise, Alpina B3, 22B, Boxster, DB7, RS4 etc so works on some nice stuff. I've not used them so not posting this in testimonials, but after the woeful experience I had at CLCM post Willie's retirement, good to know there is a knowledgeable guy with the latest wheel alignment equipment available in the Edinburgh area. Asked for a card but said he doesn't have one, nor a website - all his work comes by word of mouth. Gerry: Fenton Barns Garage: 01620 850600.
'03 Elise 111S - Sold :(
'55 Boxster S - Sold :(
'08 Exige S 240PP - Sold :(
'10 Evora NA - Sold :(
'12 Cayman R - Sold :(
'22 Alpine A110 :)

Good effort. Sounds encouraging.

I was at the new alternative to CLCM today. Redpath Tyres, South Gyle. Impressed but early days.

Gerry Fitzelle. Used to be at Whitekirk.
One of my colleagues uses him and was just saying he'd bought new alignment kit.
