From about 110mph upwards i get a lot of wind noise from the drivers window. Almost as if the window is pulling outward and air is coming in.

Is this a one of issue or something others have experience off? Car is going in for a service soon but hoping it isnt anything major!

Happened on my old DB9 they will re align the window if needed but that was an early car. Not heard of the problem though on recent cars ! You sure the window is sealing to the rubber ok when the door closes? The glass does move up on closure?

Maybe the window reset procedure would help if it isn't sealing fully? Unlikely to be something major.

I notice the same thing at about 160mph and higher.

Not personally but have you tried Rennie Deflatine? I've heard that it works wonders...
