Camber off -1.3 - Not adjustable?
Just got an alignment this morning and they mentioned they corrected my toe which was great...they also mentioned that the camber is not adjustable? I remember some folks talking about that new ones have to be purchased as they are not adjustable?
Can anyone shed light on this?
TIA

The alignment shop is correct in that the rear camber is non adjustable. This leaves you with two options. The first is buying new upper control arms from Jaguar for around $100 each. This may or may not bring the alignment back in. Option two is to get adjustable upper control arms from a Volvo S40. I paid $115 for the pair. I did a how to on this as it is for the most part a straight swap. But you do need to make a very simple mod to the Volvo arms.

bracester, like JagXV6 said, those are the arms that I put in. The how-to is here:

The modifications are nothing extensive. Takes all of about 10 minutes to do if you are taking your time.
Any questions, let me know.
