Default Where do I go to get my 99 car re-aligned?

I am talking about the suspension alignment settings rather than my panels!

Having had the engine product update and sporting new tyres feel it is about time to get my early model re-aligned to the new settings. Just wondered where to get this done properly?

I live off junction 2 of the M40 (Beaconsfield) and have the car serviced in Bushey near Watford so am not afraid to travel to get the best service.

Anyone had good experiences of specialists nearby?

Thanks in advance

James

What does this involve, do they just simply change the settings?
Rang Crown Honda about this and they didn't seem to know anything about it!
Also how much does it cost ?

Thx

Sarah, chap at Crown who was really in the know about S2000s left, he suggested I get this modification made to my car, after 3 years the alignment goes off anyway and I have spun my car a lot lately on circuits with Don Palmer. Crown can only adjust the tracking as part of a usual service and charge around

Marshalls is a Honda dealer in Reading, you can find their details on the Honda website. I know that a few members on the board use them and all appear to be very happy with the services they've received.
