Question
Can worn front anti roll bar bushes have an effect on the steering? I only ask because sometimes when I'm driving in a straight line the car seems to try and change course (ever so slightly) which doesn't feel quite right to me, as none of my other scoobs have done this.

Sounds like that could be tramlining? Like the car is finding a slight dip in the road and snatches the steering making you change course?
Tyres are the biggest influence on tramlining that I've found, stiffer sidewall (trackday tyres) seem worse for it, but is rarely a problem on track surfaces.
If there's a local bit of road which allows you to easily replicate it, perhaps have a play with tyre pressures.

Let us know how you get on. It was really bad in my Impreza when I first got it, but I've changed so much stuff, I don't know what actually fixed it
I think it was the change of tyres which did it, and I noticed it significantly worse when driving to and from a trackday on my R888's.
