Theres a few things it could be... A worn drop link is most likely given you only hear it at slow speeds, could also be the shock absorber clunking in the body. There's a really good post in the technical section describing how to fix it if that's what it is.

Does it get worse when you go over bumps? Does braking have any effect on the noise?

Best thing to do is jack up the back end and inspect everything you can for play.

Hi Chris

When a drive over bumps it flunks and
Slow speeds it still does it when out of gear
So I thought it couldn't be diff. Also when I
Come to stop sometimes back end feels like
It sinks a bit ????.

Hey Mark,
Sounds exactly like rear shock clunk,
got exact same on my Foz with Hawkeye suspension on that I need to repack with grease.

Sure that you cannot recon the Classic struts, someone on here will have a pair for you.
