My car pulls right when the power is going down. Is this normal. My last car was rear wheel drive and had none of this and I was expecting a certain amount of wriggling under power but not pulling to one side. Is there something that can be adjusted.

The cars has only 3200 miles on it and is totally standard. Everything looks almost new like a 3000 mile car should so I don't suspect damage. Its a 2002 model.

I found the problem

I found the problem

It was tyre pressures.

I rather stupidly though that as I had just picked up the car, these would be correct. Checking them revealed 28psi in the front right and 42psi in the front left. Fixing this sorted the problem immediately.

Anybody know what the tyre pressures should be and what is the best tyre (and the best reasonably priced tyre)?

I have 28 all round now with Yokohamma original fit tyres.
