I've noticed this behavior as well (that little squidginess/softness from the rear when loading it up hard laterally) and I was wondering if there was something wrong with my car because the early batch of reviews didn't really mention it. Now both Chris Harris and Evo have commented on it (as have people on this forum) so I'm a bit relieved to find out that "they all do that sir".

I was wondering about upping the rear tyre pressure and it's good to know that people think it helps a bit - will try it this weekend I think if I can find the time.
