Ideally, the suspension ecu needs to be set into 'close tolerance mode' This can be done by main dealer using their computer, or independent garage with diagnostic kit. Then take it to a reputable alignment specialist for a full geometry check.
I notice it a 2005 car, so maybe a good idea to get the suspension wishbone bushes and front ball joints/steering arms checked for wear before forking out for 4 wheel alignment, because it will definitely need one after replacing the bits.
