Alignment near Bristol?

Car has just been realigned with new Pirellis and with just 100 miles on the setup the alignment seems to have slipped. The car is now pulling gently to the left -at first I thought I might have a puncture... I do remember hitting a bit of a pot hole -not a really bad one but a bump none the less. You can imagine I'm annoyed at having to try to get a new alignment check having just had it all done... Anyway, anyone know a good place near Bristol -I don't want to drive it all the way down to Exeter where it was serviced

Any help appreciated

Cheers Aeros.

I think the Maser alignment requires some electronic gubbins ... nearest dealership is DLC just outside Swindon, unfortunately. Or could give Cortese in Bath a buzz and see if they use anyone closer.

Anyone with the latest equipment can do it ,ie a hunter set up , they will need the packing shims if adjustment has to be made , im wondering whether you have lost a shim........................... food for thought , best get it done soon as or those new tyres will end up not so new pretty sharpish

Yes, I don't wan't to trash that nice new rubber Loz -hence why I want somewhere close. Of course if a shim has dropped out then someone did not tighten the nuts properly and I will go nuts! Thing is tho' in a shimmed alignment it should not go off at all (?) unless something moves or is bent and I can't believe that the bump I felt would have bent anything... Hmm. Anyway, I'll look for Hunter machines in Bris.

Thanks
