I haven't been around here for ages - too distracted by work. But the tired XKR has been running well with no problems. I've just had new tyres fitted - my biggest single expense on this or any other car for quite some time. £900 for a set of Continental SportContact 7s.
After which, I thought I should have the alignment checked. As expected, the rear camber isn't great. Presumably there's nothing to be done about it though...
@justinhill What rear camber would you like to see? Negative rear camber provides better handling. Yours appears to be within spec of any other X150 I've seen.

@jahummer That’s a comfort. I’m aware that some negative camber is a good thing. I had just assumed the rear camber should be within the specs published by Jaguar or something’s broken or worn out. You reckon these numbers are no cause for concern then?
