Will do I sent a letter along with the pictures in this thread apart from the wheels.

Let's see what they say...

I wonder if they will say

'Sir your car is 11 years old and 7 years past the corrosion warranty expiration, exactly what were you expecting us to do?!'

How 'cheap'?

And by 'BMW' do you mean 'my local dealers parts department' as I doubt BMW UK sell centre caps?

I live on the coast too, my 2003 318 which I owned for 5 years had zero rust. The key is regular washing and arch/underside pressure washing.
