Have you had any new tyres fitted recently? I had exactly the same with my Griff some years ago when Quickcrap fitted 2 different size tyres on the back axle. It was only when driving home from the depot that I discovered the same scary/dangerous trait as you mention.

Check tyres and pressures then suspension bolts and bushes, then if no luck go get it 4 wheel aligned

And get that done by someone who knows one end of a TVR from the other and knows the right set up. Makes the world of difference.

This.

I had a similiar experience when I bought my Chim. Check the tread on the rear and one side was badly worn. Changed both rears and problem solved.

I hope its as simple as this for you!

Check the rear anti roll bar drop links for play or failure, a broken one had my Chim getting Shopping Trolley out of shape under hard acceration
