The geo setup / corner weighting process took a while in my experience, even though the guy did a great job and I thought it handled alright at first, the FSi trackday showed me more work was needed. I went back twice afterwards for a few more hours (FOC) fine tuning and tweaking over the course of a week as it wasn't turning in at certain speeds like it should and the oversteer wasn't as pronounced. It can involve a lot of work as everyone wants they car to handle differently and you pay for the vast experience these professionals have IMO.

place near me that Fast ford used does it for just over £100 full geo setup corner weight and tracking.

Was gonna do it with the ZS if I had kept it.

Pay for proper work, Ben ;) Like Alex's geo guy, my guy builds stunt show cars and has spent years helping advise and prep BTCC cars.

It really pays to have a proper job done by a properly skilled/experienced person.

Typical tracking and a full Geo' setup isn't nearly the same thing Ben. Don't get them confused :)
