An adjustment member (24) is connected to the mounting member for pivotal movement about a first axis X and a hinge arm (18) on which the boot lid is mounted is connected to the adjustment member for pivotal movement about a second axis Y parallel to but spaced from the first axis. An adjusting mechanism (26) is operative to selectively adjust the pivotal position of the adjustment member (24) relative to the mounting member (22) in order to adjust the position of the boot lid relative to a body in a vertical direction.
An adjustable hinge assembly comprising a mounting unit including a mounting member, an adjustment member connected to the mounting member for pivotal movement relative to the mounting member about a first axis, and an adjusting mechanism operative to selectively adjust the pivotal position of the adjustment member relative to the mounting member about the first axis, the assembly also including a hinge arm connected to the adjustment member for pivotal movement relative to the adjustment member about a second axis parallel to but spaced from the first axis and a locking mechanism for releasably locking the adjustment member relative to the mounting assembly,
