is that front tyre on back to front? (last pic) not suggesting that this had any effect on what appears an off road excursion, but it always surprised me how often I see tyres fitted with the direction of tread the wrong way round... I could be wrong of course.

It looks like a RE050, which do (strangely) fit in what looks like the 'reverse' direction.

Only drove round the block really so didn't notice anything. Didn't live far from the garage. I noticed when looking at the tyres it read "Inside" on the outside
