As you can see the lower arm is spanking new, the wheel is rubbing at the top only, would I ve correct in thinking that the garage who did the alignment blagged doing the camber correctly?

On another note and not sure if it's related but the inside of the alloy is scored as you can see in the pictures, this isn't normal is it?

Problem solved, I wanted to see what was scoring the alloy and found it was related, bit silly really, me in my glorious stupidity put the rod ends on wrong hands, the alloy was hitting it on turning and obviously causing the wheel to go completely off tracking as soon as the wheel was moved from a straight line, live and learn, cheers for the help either way

The most important thing of all is that you found the source of the problem and it is resolved. I'm sure most of us have made errors om our repairs too at some point!
