    Road camber? Most roads have a slight camber to the left to allow for drainage etc

    Brake caliper binding? That would pull it off to the left and would change as the brakes were used.

    This crops up on mine about every 5-6 months. A quick trip to the local garage to get the wheels re-aligned and evrythings back to normal.

    Have you checked your tyre pressures?, this could drag the car to one side if 1 tyre has a big difference in pressure?
