I've just had a walkaround the car and basically if you slowly run your hands around the front tyres sidewall just on the edge by the tread, i'm sure you can feel a slight indentation, but you can't even see it.

It is certainly not a bulge in any way. They are only a year old and have done about 10k.

I'll get it looked at sat morning but anyone else seen this?

Cheers

If it's an indentation it's more than likely where the tyre was joined in the factory, if you run your hand over the sidewall on the opposite side of the tyre you will more than likely feel it there too, if it is this there is nothing to be concerned about but a quick visit to your local tyre shop will confirm and hopefully put your mind at rest!
