Not sure about the wheel, I think it may go left, but that might be my imagining as the car goes left, and its me trying to turn it right (natural reaction), only on braking. I'll try in a bit. Otherwise car drives perfectly, no wandering, no wobbles at any speed, smooth as silk. I am going for Calipher, because after discussion with son in law/garage they said when they did the discs and pads, one of the calipers did stick slightly so it was checked out, cleaned etc, and tested prior to me having the car back.
Its hopefully going in for repair in the next couple of days :y

You don't mention any odd twisting of the steering wheel, so suspect rearward wishbone bush is ok ish and the bolts are tight. Front bush and caliper sliders to rule out then. :)
