Aston Martin goes global with Hunter
10/20/2011 8:50 AM EST
The Hunter HawkEye four wheel imaging aligner and GSP9700 Road Force Balancer has been adopted by luxury car manufacturer Aston Martin to be used in its dealerships around the world, ensuring the very best levels of comfort and performance for its customers.
The award-winning Hunter range is highly regarded around the world and is exclusively available in the UK from Pro-Align, who worked with Aston Martin to gain its approval. Its managing director, Paul Beaurain, said: “It’s a real feather in our cap for Hunter to have the endorsement of such a prestigious sports car manufacturer as Aston Martin.
“We’ve always appreciated that Hunter aligners and balancers are the best-of-the best and so to be recognised in this way is proof of that.”
Aston Martin has some 136 dealerships globally, with many US sites already enjoying the benefits of using Hunter aligners and balancers.
In practical terms, it means that for a car to be covered under warranty, an Aston Martin dealer is required to use the Hunter aligner and balancer when carrying out any alignment or wheel balancing work.
The Hunter HawkEye imaging aligner uses digital imaging cameras to take constant images of the reflective targets, attached to the wheels. It has gained an enviable reputation for delivering accurate results in a rapid time, helping to ensure maximum efficiency for workshops.
Meanwhile, the award winning Road Force Balancer is able to solve some of the most difficult vibration and ride quality concerns thanks to its ability to measure the radial force variation in tyres by applying a load to the wheel and tyre combination.
Paul Beaurain added: “Workshops using the Hunter range enjoy increased productivity, improved customer service and extra revenue generating opportunities and we are looking forward to working closely with many of Aston Martin’s dealerships across the UK.”
