So Ash is using Contis and has a problem with noise, everyone else who hasn't says it is fine.
I was the same, Contis noisy, Michelins were quiet.

I would try and swap tyres, those Contis are cropping up on a few forums as noisy after only a few thousand miles.

I got contis on the front of the skip and no complaints. Bridestones on the back. Had conti 3's all round on my 211. Very quiet all these cars.

Did you have 4 matching tyres when you collected??
Just reckon you won't have seen the best of it yet if not.

Also, I had conti sport contacts on my 211, they seemed ok, but when I put Michelins on they were so much quieter.

Bridgestones on back, conti 3's on front, I know what you are saying too. I had conti 3's allround on the 211 and whilst a bit better than the Conti 3 front/Khumo KU39 at the back, the extra £250 was a hard bite.

Theres a vedrestein tyre, Ultrac Sessanta I want to fit all round to the skip once done, gets good reviews and cheap to.
