My turning circle is hugely uneven!!!

No, not mine... my Landy's!
After becoming suspicious, I took myself off to Homebase's empty car park this evening and, what I found is, from dead straight:
1) turning right (clockwise) I get two full turns of the steering wheel, before I can turn no more.
2) turning left (anti-clockwise) I get three and a quarter turns of the steering wheel before I can turn no more.
Now, these values aren't even remotely similar, so I'm guessing something is quite wrong.
Not being at all familiar with these vehicles (yet, but I'm reading the Haynes manual fast!) what would be your best guesses as to why this would be?
Track rod end mis-adjustment? Or are there steering end stops which are out of adjustment?
Thanks all in advance.
