Unless the power steering emis whining etc id say it's normal compared to new cars.

Hi it took so long because the software to run electric power steering was not that well developed, if mechanical steering fails you can still steer, on the early electrical steering if it fails you are stuck, the main reason for the development of electric steering was emissions as it wont require the engine to drive the pump thus pushing up engine emissions and electric steering has been about on production cars since about 2008.

i bought this car yesterday It’s back on the road and being used as intended

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. If you've bought it from a dealer then they have to fix it foc in the first 30 days from sale as you're still entitled to a full refund within that time.
