Update....
Right on Sunday evening after a 120mile ride-out around the M25 (highway that circles Greater London), I removed the front wheel and tryed fitting it the "wrong way", it fits perfectly......
However, there was a spacer missing on the Right side of the spindle, this, I thing is to blame for the dealership thinking the wheel wasn't central.
Anyway, I then noticed that they had only changed the right hand side brake pads!!!!
Leaving the 70% worn old pads in the left caliper!
After a battle, I have got my money back from the dealership. Suffice to say, I'll do all the maintenance on the bike from now on.

If you check this parts diagram you'll find out how the brake disks and spacers should be fitted.
Left and right hand side spacers do have different p/ns. Check this post for their dimensions...
