car has decided it likes going right?

hey. ive got an h-reg golf cabrio and lately if i go over a bumpy road the steering shakes and the car pulls to the right. and ive just noticed that it pulls to the right when i put my foot down quite fast. is this a bush?any ideas?has anyone else had the same problem? many thanks. :dontknow:

First port of call would be to check out your wheel alignment - if youve recently bashed a curb or speed bump it could put the wheels out of alignment. Seems obvious i know, but worth checking out.

Tyre pressures, uneven camber, worn track rod ends, loose or broken steering rack mounts but it sounds more like poor alignment.
