Default Help power steering noise loud on Saph Cos!

Just bought said car and the power steering is v noisy, like when you full lock another car, pretty loud... any ideas? I've checked the fluid and that's ok... even steering the car round a roundabout it's loud enough to hear in the car... Is this normal?

Thanks

Cheers, are they expensive? Can I buy a complete unit? Is it safe to run for a while yet?
