Had this on my MY98 wagon recently.
On full lock reversing out of a parking space for example, car would almost jump when going back. Quite rythmical just like a CV joint as well, I also suspected the worst.
Would you believe after a little investigation (and I do mean a very little bit of just looking at the wheels
) it was knackered tyres. Tyres been on for 22k so can't comlplain but inside edge extremely worn on one of them and badly own on the other. I guess this was causing it to lose traction.
2 new front tyres and no more knocking everything tip-top again

MY98 Turbo 2000 wagon with PPP (255BHP/276ft.lb), running Goodyear Eagle F1, and I don't hang about either so I was well impressed. TBH I do manage a fair bit of motorway mileage though probably at least 40% of my miles.
