Pulling to the left

My 2014 GT Sport has developed a noticeable pull to the left. I've had it to a mechanic who says there's nothing obviously wrong with the suspension and the geometry shows green all round. He reckons it could be tyres but there seems to be plenty of wear left in them.

Any thoughts please?

Thanks in advance.

Tyres do seem to be a strange thing nowadays.
Ive just changed my wifes Audi tyres as theye where badly worn on the inside but as you all the angles where in green.
Some with the Strad badly worn on the inside.

Could be tyres

Take it for a run, then feel the wheel temperatures when you come back, if any brakes are binding that wheel should feel warmer.

Has your car recently taken up allegiance to Jeremy Corbyn?

Tire pressure first stop. Then tracking. The GT trramlines a lot on a good day.

Usual weak point on these cars are the upper front wishbone bushes. mine are shot after 22k miles (now on 25k and struggling)

Mine is on 24k so that could be it. Is the lack of straight tracking a symptom? I think there's a thread somewhere else but presumably cheap part and expensive fix?
