But I have seen cars where it's perfect.
Guy at the workshop said they can only adjust so much because everything must stay aligned.
He said it is mass production on an assembly line, no two cars are the same. And sometimes things can be a few mm off. They even get Mini's where on sight you can see the one front light is lower than the other.

I think I have to live with it because they can't adjust it more.
My wife says I'm going nuts and losing it
