if you think it's tracked ok and it still is pulling off then its a bottom ball joint. if worn caus the car to pull left of right depending on whether you accelerate or let off. Take it out and if the joint is loose its gone. they should be very stiff.

nope the tyres wear evenly.the car has done about 130,000 miles i have done about 20,000 in it and havnt changed anything just tyres not sure if the guy before changed ball joints or anything so is it likely it could be them?do i need to take it off to check it though?
