Thanks for the replies both. Very different readings for everyone.

Welton - how come you have negative camber at the front? Are you lowered? And you have a degree less camber on the rear.
I know it's an S40, so maybe not as heavy as a V50?

Good to see other peoples read-outs.

I don't know why that is, I've got new wishbones if that makes a difference?

Factory standard Dynamic Chassis and just the B4 dampers.

I always assumed they put your car into the Hunters computer and that gives then the settings they need to look for.

Yeah, they do.

There are slightly different Hunter machines as well.

Here are some other readouts I got from a different tyre garage

Before

After

The place that did the above adjustments did so on unevenly worn tyres, so when driving straight ahead, the steering wheel wasn't level.

Thankfully, I've found a new place [the first read-out I posted] and they seem to know what they're doing with regards to wheel alignment.
