Say im going round a corner in a lane quite quickly, and the road is quite bumpy, the car judders so badly its hard to hold the steering wheel, I have to come off the gas cause I think its going to fall apart :S
Im sure it hasn't always done this, could it be a busted shock?

Steering also changes when lifting off/on throttle?
check for play in the wheels steering first.

Do you mean play in the steering column?
jack the front wheels up and check for play

Turns out the front n/s shock was ****ed, was pissing oil out everywhere!
shocks should be changed in pairs really
