It's more than likely the rear diff winding up- come off the clutch a tiny bit slower to reduce the shock through the transmission.

if you put it in reverse and jolt the car backwards do you get a knock then? if so it's probably the rear diff front beam bushes worn.

i will give that a go tomorrow. But in motion forward it doesnt do it at all even if your going fast BUT its when you let go pretty fast to change gear when i happens. I used to own a GT4 and they had similar noise but was the Diff mount! however that would always be there even if your at low revs and slow changes!
I hope its somthing simple!

They all do it. As above. Its the driver, not the car.
