Sorry to jump in on your thred Dan but i have the very same problem, i have even tried to descibe the sound to other people by saying it sounds like the above picture lol.
Mine started after a missed gear and a over rev, does this sound like bottom end is on its way out?

I wouldnt say it was the bottom end just yet. I had a stone caught in my tyre which made a clicking noise the faster i got. Also in my previous car, i had something caught in my brake caliper which sounded the same. Is it doing it when the car is idle, or is it just when its moving?

To cure ticking of the Bcs remove the mounting screws and take out the steel tube through the middle of the rubber isolating bush. The rubber goes hard over the years and the metal bush starts to make contact with the body.
You'll need a small touch of thread lock to stop the bolts unscrewing, as you only need to pinch the rubber bush and the bolts will still be loose, but it'll stop the noise.
OR buy new bushes ??

I've been contemplating this for the last few weeks, to have it confirmed is excellent.
As i have to have the i/c of today, i shall remove said 'tubes' on the bcs at the same time.
