Hi, I have recently bought a T reg Honda Civic es, The car seems in good general condition but I have noticed that when I drive away from a idle posistion my left wheel spins almost all the time, I have checked the tyres and they are in good condition, could it be the allignment? or a sticky brake? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Most likely cause would be a poor tire.

If it squeeled on turns, I would say it could be your alignment (toe-out on turns), however, if it's when going straight, I would definately have a better look at the tire age (date stamp) and tread condition.
