It's in German of course, so I used an online translator to understand it but mostly the numbers tell what they are about. German speakers please correct or confirm if you deem it necessary.

First, the "measured value" of their test car, then the "setting range according to manufacturer":

Measured Value:

Front Axle: Nachlauf (caster?) 6°54', Spur (toe?) 0°32',
Sturz (camber?) -1°36'

Rear Axle: Spur (toe?) 0°20', Sturz (camber?) -1°19'

Settings Range According to Manufacturer:

Front Axle: Caster from 6°50' up to 7°50', Toe from 0°02' up to 0°18' and camber from -0°55' up to -1°45'

Rear Axle: Toe from 0°02' up to 0°18' and camber from -1°33' up to -1°58'

I double checked above numbers in order not to make an error, those I posted above are the printed numbers in that issue.

Hope this helps to the purpose of this thread.

Great! Thanks Oz
