Back door problem

[Matthew1955]

The back door on my 120 does not close properly,it appears to have dropped slightly.The door section of the catch which tapers so that the body section fits into the taper and lifts the door slightly to allow the catch to catch as it were.The spare wheel is fitted to the door which obviously adds extra weight to the door. Can the door be adjust up on the hinges so that the catch fits correctly rarther than with quite a "clunk" Thats the tecnichal term by the way. Thanks
