Timing well out
did you have the air con or heater off when you checked the timing.the car will sense electrical load and picks up the revs to compensate.the base idle is 15 deg but the moment the revs are increased the timing starts to advance.

MOT Failure due to Tyre Wear (Camber issues)
shimmed my top arms out using washers measured with a micrometer.as long as you have enough thread left on the mountings its fine.all you need to do is get the camber in spec. as the front springs sag with age the camber and toe out will increase.the washers will sort it til funds allow.done mine two years ago and never had any issues regarding tyre wear since.

What cat1 car alarm/immobiliser?
No your right.remote start or cars left with the engine running using a turbo timer will cause a major headache if it was to be stolen.the engineer told me this when my toad was fitted.he also said a zed would only need cat 2 cover due to its age.
