could be your anti roll bar bushes or bracket broke you can get them from milners cheap enough

most likely anti-rollbar bracket. Also check your spare wheel is secure, and that the jack under the rear seat isn't moving around and knocking.

It's possible the top of one of the shocks has become unbolted. Happened to me once and took me a while to find what was wrong. By the time I found it the thread on the shock was wrecked.
