You will notice it most when the chassis is unsettled on diagonally opposing wheels but this doesn't happen very often and in my opinion isn't too startling.
Oh, and if you have strut braces fitted it can tend to amplify the situation.

ops: Christ, I thought strut braces reduced shake! Doh!
I've been getting a bit annoyed by the shake so have been running round the car trying to isolate little rattles which has helped slightly.
I was thinking about polybushing my entire front end but maybe this isn't such a good idea if I want to reduce the shake?

The flex has to go somewhere so if you strengthen the struts there's more transmitted to the aft area. It's not that much worse I've got one and don't have any issues with it at all.
Lashing things down and removing rattles with help reduce the effects though as I've been over my car with a fine toothed comb and it's much better!
