The alignment might be within tolerance mate, as was my 8. But i had it set to tow in more to counter the tyre wear i was getting. So effectively the alignment is out on mine but i get even tyre wear.

Also without wanting to offend, could it be your driving style that makes such a huge difference between the Beemer and the RS? What i mean is could your driving style suit a RWD car. Maybe try a bit of pendulum into the bend or lifting or maybe a dab of brakes to get the arse end out.

I can't get it into my head that a 330 derv and a 318 petrol can have the same weight dist front and rear. Or how it adjusts ballest to suit a 8 stone whippet of a man to a 25 stone big fella or the fuel it has on board.
