Bah! Clutching at straws there. A Disco is a thing of sublime beauty... even with a bullbar on it.:cool:

I asked BEMW to check it out at its last service and they said the suspension mounts on the chasis were out by ~10mm and when this was transferred to the axle ends it resulted in a wheelbase difference of 25mm from one side to the other. Since it sounds horrendously expensive to fix and since it causes me no problems other than the tyre rubbing on the drivers side (which the Camel Cut has now fixed) I'm not going to worry about it. ;)

due to an accident or bad build or is the mount bent up?

They said there was no evidence of damage or accident repair so I can only assume it was a bad build. :eek:
