As per title, I've looked around my local area, Haslemere and surroundings but can't seem to find any where.

I'd like to get my Coilovers set up properly as currently the e36 is rather twitchy, which isn't very confidence inspiring.

Any one have some knowledge?

Cheers :-)

Not particularly local but I had my MX5 set up with GAZ Gold Pro at Wheels in Motion in Chesham. Great guys who really know what they are doing.

No longer a fan of Plans after the total disregard they had for my P&J. If you do take it there, I'd recommend you get them to acknowledge any chips, marks or dinks you have on the car when you take it in as they sure as hell won't accept any responsibility for anything they've done when you collect it.

What is it you need doing exactly? If you've fitted coiloversl I'd get the car corner weighted for a start as some kits don,t come pre set,setting up is a different ball game, if you have 3 way coilovers a guru may set them up with his bump/rebound but thay may not suit your driving style or needs, tuning the socks is down to you

That's not good. I'd be interested to hear your bad experience - I've had worse experiences from other guildford based specialists than plans.
