Is It Camber Follow Or Pulling

Just bought a nearly new , dealer owned I think , avensis hatch 2 d4d t3s 07 plate 06 model I beleive 7k on clock.

I think it pulls to the left , ever so slightly and less noticable on motorways , but I have a feeling it will be called camber following by the dealer .Thing is sometimes isnt all the time , and in varying degrees on different road types , and it can still go left in opposite camber ie driving on the rhs.Ive driven a lot of cars , including abroad rentals every year , and dont notice camber follow on focus , astra and fabia.

Anyone with a similar prob , or a way of diagnosing if im correct , or what where could possibly be out of whack , its not much , just a pain having to thumb down constant on the rhs of the steering wheel.

thanks

Back in May I bought my 6th Toyota (5th and last Avensis). In May 2007 I bought a 1.8 Avensis T3-S, and the handling is shockingly dangerous. Very light and twitchy. I notice it is worst when turning left. Car spent fair amount of time in dealer during August when they found rear wheel tracking out. After sorting, no difference though. Last Toyota, I'm afraid. Wife too. Plus her driving school (with almost 100 Toyota Yaris).

Afraid that Accountants seem to have taken over from car designers/ builders.

update

friday , had it in for 4 wheel alignment , so far so good but not done much miles but noticeably different.

It now has a REAL camber follow not a pull , the mechanic also noticed it and reccomended it done under warranty.

Cant say its a twitcy feeling on mine , solidly on road and power steering is the best ive had in a car in a while ...ie it has feel.

arnold clark did it , not him personally , but his company.

Heres the numbers that were adjusted from normal
