Thanks Colin - I just paniced as I spoke to one chap at the good garage on the phone and he recommended that I get it fixed (quickly!) ...however, after I calmed down and Chris spoke to him I realised he hadn't even seen it and he didn't realise that the wheel alingment was only *slightly* out, not a major thing, it's just on the notes it said something like "wheel adjustment unable to get perfect due to bent hub carrier" - but the nice chap who was doing our car and Paul both looked at it and came to the conclusion it wasn't worth fixing as it was only a slight thing Judging by the way Paul threw it around the country lanes () and then said he was more than happy with it, I think I can relax He wouldn't have done that with a car he was concerned about, lol

Needless to say shatts hadn't even mentioned it...but then I don't think the car actually left the car park at the last service

Steve - it was a result of last year!! Shatts and Strides didn't even mention it
