Are both front wheels true and straight. One could be slightly buckled.

A few years back I had this problem on a 205 gti I had. It turned out one of the front tyres had been slightly over inflated and a bump had come off the inside. You could only find it my actually removing the wheel.

Changing the tyre solved it.

Hope its something trivial like that and not something more serious mate.
