At a speed of more than 80kph the steering stars to wobble if I move up to about 120kph it steadies some how and if I turn left some times at that speed or far less there's a squeaky noise from the wheel area.

The wobbling could be one or more of several things. The most likely cause is either a missing wheel weight or tires that are worn unevenly. It could also be caused by worn tie rod ends.
The first thing to do would be to have the tires balanced. This is generally cheap.
