2002 ESP question -- thump when cornering? (more)

Anybody experienced the new ESP yet? I took an
Aero wagon out for a test drive this weekend.
Every time I took a sharp corner at around 25mph
there was a massive thump from the front end,
which could be felt through the steering wheel.
No front wheel slip, just one hell of a bang. So
I turned the ESP off and did the same manouver:
slight wheel skid but no banging or thumping.
Question: could this really be down to the ESP
engaging, and is it normal for a vehicle stability
programme to react so aggressively to counter
slight wheel slippage at such low speeds? I've
never driven a car with any form of electronic
stability programme so this may well be perfectly
normal. However, if it is, it detracts considerably
from what is otherwise an impressive ride.
Regards,
Harley
