Car Pulling Left - Rear Toe?

Car Pulling Left - Rear Toe?
Hi all, I have a Gb270 wagon and it’s drifting left when driving. (More noticeable at 50+) It’s not insane but enough to annoy. I recently changed the springs back to new Prodrives and had the alignment done. When I got it back, I noticed the pulling which initially put down to front soft tyre but once pumped up, it made no difference.
The garage said that my toe bolts were well seized when I picked it up and advised to replace.
So I looked at the Geometry settings and my rear toe is : 0.09 Rear Left Toe and 0.00 Rear Right Toe
Would that be enough to make it pull? Or should I be looking elsewhere for another culprit?
Many info would be great!
Cheers Martyn

My alignment tech likes to get the numbers pretty much smack on equal (he prides his work)

Thanks for the replies guys. I would agree with you but they explained that the rear was seized and unable to adjust. I had recently bought the car and there was quite a few issues being sorted (which was mainly achieved).
Looks like it’s round 2 for me! Will purchase rear toe bolts and camber bolts and go from there. Certainly looks like the culprit for the pulling.
Thanks again
