Just greedy b**tards
Find your self a good mechanic and stick with him.
There are self employed mechanics out there that will look after you, its just finding one.
 
Hmm. Had my track rod end replaced recently so I need to get the alignment done.

I'll let you know how much I get charged.

that is on of the last real saab´s :)
 
It's true - they do have a lot of adjustment! I had an S2000 and that was adjustable in about 16 different directions (4 per wheel) and my BMW 330Ci is similar, so cost a good £150 to get the wheel alignment done properly with a 4 wheel laser alignment setup. Range Rover's are the same I believe!

Bul****! Only one track rod to adjust for tracking, adjusting the drag link to center the steering box is a piece of **** you can do yourself without any kit:D
