Not sure if this should really be in discussion:
A 51 plate Mondeo went past me last night, I watched it come up in my mirrors as it looked odd and after it passed I realised it was going crabwise, ie it's nearside rear was more to the left than the front. I've read on here about Mondeos needing sub-frame tracking after work underneath - is this the effect of it not being done and why wouldn't the driver notice? I estimate his speed to have been 85 - 90 mph.

Its due to having been in a severe accident and poorly rebuilt they use to be quite common.

Andy, I have seen this where the rear sub frame bushes have been replaced & a nurd has refitted it without aligning up the subframe with the tools or a good eye.
