I didn`t realise that the KDS wheel alignment check was a much unheard of system.
This system loads the car to the correct ride height and then adjusts it to factory settings for the country you are in.
This is very accurate and involves weighting the car down then mounting wheel plates
Here is a little background on it.
Hunter has designed the KDS wheel alignment systems to include DSP600 Digital Imaging Wheel Alignment Sensors* (KDS II system) or DSP508 Conventional Wheel Alignment Sensors (KDS I system) and Series 811 Alignment Consoles. A customised version of Hunter's WinAlign® alignment software* has been designed to meet the specifications of all BMW Group vehicles, including those equipped with single-joint, spring-loaded front axles and multi-link rear axles with spherical kinematics.
Hunter DSP600 digital imaging alignment sensors use multi-dimensional modeling to provide accurate alignment measurements. High-resolution digital cameras* continuously measure wheel target* position and orientation thus providing the same alignment measurements as conventional sensors.
At the moment my car has a bit of uneven wear and occasionally i get that side-wind swept feeling on a calm day.
This all relates to poor alignment i believe?
I will get a KDSII and let you know how it feels afterwards.
P.S I am no expert but this is the system that i was advised is the very best for our cars.
