bought an 08 e gear spyder with 1000 miles on it just over 1 week ago, dropped the car off at the dealers for a creaky roof, however i have noticed that when changing either up or down gears the car seems to pull to the left and back to the right does anyone have this problem or is this normal.
i had a ferrari challenge stradale with f1 shift and didnt experience this.

The car should not be doing that, get the dealer to sort it out

directional stability is exceptional on the Gallardo.

Get the dealer to check the suspension geometry. Also the CV joints can cause this problem if the car has been kerbed.

just got the car back from the dealers, and i just noticed the rear tyre has a puncture pressure 1.2bAR. I feel like a right muppet.

In a way you'll be glad this happened. I've had this too and it makes it easier to tell if you have a low pressure. Mine gave the same symptoms with slight application/removal of throttle, and this at 25psi which isn't that far down.
