How much for 4 wheel alignment/ vehicle geometry test?

Post by Steve Blackdog » Thu Jun 20, 2013 10:45 pm

Hi folks

What should I expect to pay a BMW specialist independent to carry out a 4 wheel alignment/vehicle geometry test on my E53?

I have been quoted £80 + vat , but I have no idea what is involved.  They are a good garage and not to my understanding rip off merchants, but that sounded a bit higher than I was expecting.  Their hourly rate is £55 + vat.

Any advice welcome.

Cheers
Steve

As a guide I've just paid a BMW dealer £125 inc VAT discounted from £140 for a full alignment.

Thanks for that.  That makes my price about right.

Cheers
