I'll have a look for you on Thurday, just make yourself known to me.
Its VERY hard to diagnose anything without a good description or visually checking it.
How long has it happend for? Haseanything changed on the car recently?

Its one of 2 things, puntos are prone for the rear radius arm bushes wearing excessivly, this is the arm that holds your rear suspension/wheel to the chassis or you have snapped a shock absorber

Joe's car (BeemerRacer) does that.. he got it looked at and apparently its a split bush.. could be something completly different on your car.. just thought id mention it
Thing about lies is... you will finally get caught out, remember that
