I appreciate this is a can of worms, but what would your recommendations be for a transmitter upgrade?

It sounds like you use a stick set...
Because I am an old dinosaur, I still think that money put into the Japanese ENGINEERED radio systems (not the chinese-made clone systems) is money well spent.
For that reason I think that the Futaba 3GR 40MHz version at £120 RRP (less in shops) is stonking value. The 2.4GHz version is almost twice the price!
Of course, 40MHz FM is about as popular as Tony Blair right now and just as out-of-date - but it works, reliably, and crystal clashes are very rare nowadays.
You can find decent sets on eBay (or oople) from time to time such as the Futaba 3GR or 3VC, Sanwa Gemini or Exzes, or KO Esprit (although the KO suits people with small hands better and is a slight step down in quality form Futaba and Sanwa).
No doubt people will also suggest the Core and Etronix china-clone sets which are very cheap.
Once you have a radio wth EPA, you'll be able to get the proper servo saver back on the car, and the steering will be completely transformed - full lock will be full lock, no more, no less, just as it should be.
