Ah, yeah that's fairly low.

As for the Ford being cheaper, EB was still live axle if I remember correctly.

Live axle has pretty much no adjustment, so they wouldn't have needed (or been able) to align the rear.

Yeah, 2 wheel alignment v 4 wheel alignment, hence the price diff with the MX5.

Some pretty average angles you've got according to those readings. Keep a good eye on your inside tyre wear.
Lots of KPI + lots of castor usually means lots of neg camber on turns.
