I've recently bought the car - when turning there is a scraping noise from the front wheels - i'm being told that this is normal?? Has anyone else had this?

Welcome. I suggest you scroll down the forum main page to find the section for your specific vehicle. There will be people there who own the same vehicle you own and they'll be more than glad to help you.
