Thank you all for the advice - I've had a crack at the doors again today and I think I've got the fit as good as I can without seals.

The front door had the bottom rotated clockwise (looking toward the from of the car) bringing the lower section in, the photos below is the percussion adjustment that I needed to do. I did this with a bluntened chisel and a rubber mallet

The other end need pulling out as it off by some margin

I've tried to move it forwards as best as I can but I need another pair of hands.

There's something not right with the frames

The rear door needed more very long as the gap was huge!

I got this gap to a similar point as the front but I had another issue!

I couldn't open it as it clashed with the front!

The position was sorted and the gap to the front door is consistent which is odd as the rear gap isn't as tight as I'd expect with some tightness.

As they're fairly close I'll hold off doing much with them till the other side is on and look at getting some seals and finishing the job off
