I thought I'd replace DPA back into this section. Having lived in Nottingham for a year, I have used DPA a few times and they are always efficient, know what they are doing and not too expensive.

I had the wheel alignment done in June, just before a holiday to Norfolk. I'd had the front wishbone bushes replaced and this had changed the front alignment slightly. 40 mins later, after waiting at their premises, the car was ready and tracked better and had more feel through the steering.

Here's their website: http://www.dpavolvo.co.uk/

It amuses me that my wife's uncle runs a 1999 V70 classic (2.5 auto) and still goes to the main dealer, Speeds, to get everything done. I gave him a card for DPA - hopefully he'll become a convert.

Another DPA recommendation! I called in 'on spec' to get my leaking front tyre looked at (going to Lancaster tomorrow) and they had the car in, removed the corrosion on the inner rim and rebalanced both front wheels. £27.00, inc VAT. I could of course have gone to a national high street tyre chain, but seeing as it was one of those that fitted the tyres and balanced them in the first place...
