CV Joint most likely.
Put the steering on full lock once in each direction (L then R) and tell us what you hear. Do this going forwards and then in reverse. Use a empty shopping centre car park.

Okay, I took the car out and checked this. The sound only comes when doing above 20km/h and turning left with the wheel at about 3/4 lock. There's no sound when turning right or at lesser speeds, lower steering angles or in reverse (although I didn't get the chance to test 20km/h in reverse~).
I was speaking to Adrian (aka SR TWINCAM) about it - his car is doing something similar, but he reckons that a part of the splash guard might be hanging down into the wheel arch. To me it sounds to metallic to be that, but what the hey, its worth a look.
I'm gonna get the car up on stands and take a look this week sometime, anything else I should look out for?
