No, Jin, I need that offset to clear the gearbox end. I have an idea that the bonnet may be offset two or three mm; I'll try centring that. Looking yesterday, pre-alignment check, the driver's side is definitely under but the passenger is about 6-8mm out - it's hard to be exact.
Getting the alignment done today; MOT booked for Monday (it's currently still in test).
