It's an odd sensation and MoT/Service sees not fault but I've never driven any car like it. I'm sure it wasn't like that in 2016 when we bought new. Could it be tyres (Toyo Proxes currently) tread caught in grooves in the road, the chassis, or R Design setup?
Just a very odd sensation.

It could be tramlining, as simmy mentioned.
You could have worn control arm bushings, which can also cause a wayward feeling whilst driving. Or, you may need an alignment. Some tyres can cause this problem, especially if low on tread.
