Car veers to the right when accelerating...

And dips back to the left when you take your foot off the throttle. A bit disconcerting especially at motorway speeds.

Had a full four wheel alignment done not long ago, any suggestions?

Get it done again, somewhere else.
Check the suspension first!

When you say 'check the suspension', can you be a bit more specific.

Thanks...

he means check coil springs to see if there a bit broken off and check for play in the strut top bearings (needs jacking up)

Thanks.

The strut top bearings were replaced about a year ago.
I've just had the near side front bottom ball joint replaced; could that have 'caused' the problem?

have a look at both bottom arms see if they look the same incase wrong part was fitted and also check that pinch bolts are tight

Imperial Tyres in Swindon have just diagnosed the problem as being worn bushes in the NSF lower wishbone. I can thoroughly recommend them.
