Thanks to those who provided input prior to my car going in for adjustment. Mark Arket, David Taylor, Bob Rawle, Tim Hardisty, Duke Ting. To name just a few.

==============================
While I understand that the computer says 'rear camber not adjustable', I have seen numerous posts contradicting this.
I have Ohlins suspension fitted and apparently there is no cam fitted to allow camber adjustment at the front.
The point is, while the garage has (reluctantly)offered to elongate the holes to make adjustment possible <I>(if I really want them to)</I>, they have been (sorry about the pun) 100% negative about every aspect of adjustment so far.
Here are some examples.
"You won't be able to feel the difference".
"If you want to waste your money you can do".
"They are talking taters" after being shown front negative camber settings (equal each side) (Mark).
I have now have no confidence, in their ability to do the job, mainly due to the <B>complete lack of interest</B> in achieving it or trying to find a way to do it.
I get the impression that they do not do too much of this sort of thing and that anything away from the mainstream, they are not bothered about as it is too much trouble.
They are talking now of elongating mounting holes on my suspension legs.
Does anybody know who would be more interested in doing the job how it should be done and instilling a small amount of confidence that they want to/know how to do what I want.
(Prodrive settings as achieved by Rannoch or thereabouts).
I am in Nottingham, but don't mind travelling a 'reasonable' distance to get it done right.
NAS want about another £150.00+ to do the work on top of the £30.00 I have already paid them.
