Thanks to WIM at Chesham
« on: 28 November 2019, 15:04:41 »

Omega has been driving like a total pig. I’ve tried many times to adjust it myself using works substandard Hoffman alignment machine. I’ve clearly been doing something fundamentally wrong!

I can’t upload the report but left camber was -0’36 and front toe was out.

Massive thanks to Tony and the team. The drive back was amazing and how it should drive!

Definitely worth the trip. And Chesham is lovely. I’d been to them when they were at MK. So definitely overdue a visit 👍👍👍

...and on the way back basking in the glory of being able to drive at motorway speeds without flirting with the central reservation I saw a 65 plate merc kicking out a serious amount of blue smoke. Wtf has it been driven like for a four year old car to be doing that  ???

Mines my daily driver. Which is why I was sick of driving it constantly needing the loo! 🤣

Really nice set up they’ve got at WIM. some top kit too.
