Well guys the problem has been sorted once and for all. I was always certain it was not a brake problem but after speaking with many suspension specialists I was told no way would it be a suspension problem. It was all caused by a bent rear sway bar link. When it was fitted to the car it did not stand out as being bent but what was happening was as you applied the brakes the rear of the car lifts and as the sway bar links were effectively two different lengths it would pull the diff at an angle and cause the car to rear steer.
