The handle look smarter than I thought they would on a silver Fabia, Nice one if a bit on the high side

Jason, you've realigned the rear wheels - or at least the left one - to give it marked toe-out? Or your car now has rear wheel steering? (Do I win the prize?)

No... I still dunno what you mean though?

I see the front appears higher than the back... I can only assume that was the last wheel I did and so it hadn't settled from being jacked up? Oh well, I'm happy and that's what matters.

Your anti-gravity jack left a residue on the wheel?
