Finally got my pride and joy back on the road after months of tinkering to have some ermmmm 'not very nice person' reverse into the front passenger corner the first day back on the road and drive off leaving no details (some lovely people out there). Re-done all the body work but have quite a shake through the steering wheel now (more obvious the faster I go). Have had all of the obvious bits looked at, tracking etc plus had a few bits replaced, bushes etc but the shakings still there. Could it be as simple as a buckled wheel?? Have had tyres changed this week but forgot to ask them to check, but surely they'd have noticed.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Take it you had the wheels rebalanced when you had the tyres fitted? Could be as simple as a weight having been knocked off plus you can usually tell if a wheels buckled by getting it balanced. I know you said you had all of the obvious bits looked at but a rebalance should tell you if its buckled. Hope you solve the problem soon.

Yeah had the wheels rebalanced and the tracking etc done so would imagine that that's all good (although the bloke who did it seemed a bit rubbish). Think I'll defo check the wheel for a buckle as it was hit pretty hard
