Thanks Welton, that sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. I'm on the hunt now for a place that does that near me (no pun intended!!).

theRsole,

Thanks for the update... I'll be posting my findings also, as and when I get it into the alignment place. Hopefully yours doesn't turn out to be too bad an issue with your bent bit :S

Go to wheels in motion and find a garage in your area listed on their website.

So, eventually got this done- immediate difference in the feel of the car, my rear offside was well out, will post the printout if I can get the scanner goiing...
Well worth the investment, steering wheel is straight and the car doesn't pull on a straight anymore - and my squealing rear wheel has stopped too!

Looks like you had serious geometry issues!!

yeah, the problem was that I had a few issues all at the same time so neglected the alignment trying to sort those...

I think this could very well be the root of my problems.... unfortunately after the clutch and DMF repair (and 2 new tyres!), I've gotta wait till next month :S

Fingers crossed!!
