well got it sorted!! first i replaced the drop links because one of them was rattling ( turns out the drivers side one - the joints were all floppy) but still pulled to the left but was alot quiter! so then i took it to my local garage where they had a fancy 4 wheel lazer thing and they comfermed what it was ....... wait for it........ the tracking? it was out by 6mm!....... now i know what your thinking why did'nt you check that first?, well after the bump out side my house by a numpty van driver, i asked the bodyshop to check the tracking which they said they did so thats why my mind went into overdrive and though something eles was wrong? 45 quid and it was sorted!
