Could be the steering column going?
Get the tracking checked out
For the coulmn, if its an RSi it will have PAS.
Pull the rubber boot up at the bottem of the column, you will see a universal joint, and then above it a rectangular section, with the rest of the coukmn slotted inot it, prolly with loads of plastic tack coming out of it, grab the column above and below this is twist and see fi there is any play, there shoudl be no play in it when twisted like this by hand.
Easy soloution is to get a garage to weld this joint up, makes the stearing 100% better

Renault Clio 16v
Had loads of play in my 16v so once I got the steering rack replaced (£200 for reburbished one as renault don't make new ones anymore) and my steering is perfect!

The Fatty said:the mk1s do have play in the wheel. mine has about 1 to 2 cm's.
as for the wheel being bold, to many wheel spins! lol.
WTF! no they dont! they have no play at all! if you have play u need to get yours sorted aswell! def sounds like steering column. not sure on the rsi but the 16v is a renault only part, has to be ordered in from france and can take about 3 weeks!
