Relic - Agreed but trying to get the garage to appreciate that is another thing!! The tyres & wheels are original.

I've now got the car booked in for an alignment check on Thursday. Alignment with adjustment for the rear is £280! In the meantime I will get two new tyres fitted as they are both illegal & then see how I get on negotiating with the dealership once they've completed their checks.

If anybody else has any further advice, I'd appreciate your opinion.

Cheers. Rob.
All BMWs wear out on the inside first in the rear and the outside and inside in the front. It's just the way the suspension is engineered -- no alignment problems. I've had four 5 series V8's and they all wore in the same pattern.
