I agree on the new petrol engines comment. My father had a 66 plate 1 series and that was not as quiet as I remember engines of old being.
Anyway, an update on my problem.
I've just got the car back from the dealership and after a couple of days they found it to be loose air-con pipe mountigs at the back of the engine causing the rattle. This was more noticeable when the car was parked nose down.
Hopefully that's the end of the matter now because overall the car has been great, and I cant fault the dealership (Inverness) in this case who have been excellent
