The geometry has been checked with no problems and there is no play in the drive shafts etc.....

It's driving me crazy and really upsets me that I hate driving it now!!!

Please Please Help so that I can enjoy driving my baby again!
When you say the geometry has been checked, what are the settings?
Off the top of my head:

Front -
Camber: -2 degrees
Toe: In 2mm

Rear -
Camber: 1.5 degrees
Toe: out 1mm

Cannot dial out the rear toe out on the standard beam.
