While having one of my plastic pigs MOT'd the other day i metioned to the garage about tracking with ten inch wheels , they tried clamping the tracking gear on the wheels , but it would not close up enough , the garage said try Kilnhurst Tyres & MOT garage !!!! , i went to Kilnhurst Tyres and they said yes we can do that , we have the UK's very first CLAMPLESS wheel aligner installation , drive on to the ramp , camera recognises the car and then tells the machine what the tracking should be , massive screen with everything showing in degrees , what superb service these guys offer ;) I would highly recomend this service , Kilnurst is near Rotherham , S, Yorks.

The guys were telling me the package cost £1/2 million , so i gather it must be spot on and if its tracked properly , it must drive better , well in my head anyway :lol: :lol: :lol:

Not to detour your thread-

But as an american who's never come close to seeing that body style- what's your car in that picture?

I love it!
