Same effect on mine was caused by vertical rear bushes gone on the poly'd 'bones. Pressed in two new OE bushes and it is now fine :y

Ill have to jack it up and have a poke around :( Going by the last batch of omega's it was drop links every time but they gave more of a rattling knock :( Damn speed bumps >:(

It's not the speed bumps, but that pesky rearward vertical bush most likely.
Although mines something else. Single clonk once a week or so.
If you take the wheel off take a pic of the rearward wishbone bush and post it up.

Not quite sure what this part looks like then chris :-[ So i can check and take a picture

Have you checked the guides in maintanance and FAQ? One of them has a pic. I know it does, I wrote it.

Might be your top mounts. I had a nasty knock when going over bumps/potholes and changed the top mounts which sorted the problem. :)

Cant find anything in faq about rearward vertical bush :-[
