Lurching to right on long right hand bends

My 2004 multispace has started to lurch to the right on long right hand bends under acceleration.

This was first noticed one day after all four wheels were tracked at tyre place. I got the tracking done because I had solved steering vibration by fitting 2 new tyres and, although all was perfect afterwards, decided that it would be best to avoid uneven wear again in case that was the cause.

Since then I have had the rear suspension renewed, new drop arms at the front and 4 new tyres fitted. The original 2 new fronts were illegal after 7,000 kms.

I also took it back to the same tyre place that tracked it, where it was tracked again. No better.

I have just been to a different place (on recommendation) where, although they can't check it for 15 days, the person seemed to recognise the problem straight away by asking 'is it a Berlingo?'

She explained too rapidly for me to keep up (I am in France) but I did hear her mention the word 'direction', which means steering in English. To make sure. I asked if the problem was with the front or the rear. The reply was 'the front' and, then 'if it was a Mercedes for example, it would be the rear'.

This suggests to me  a connection to the drive, but, if so, why was everything perfect until the first tracking was done?
