Help needed

Hi i would like to see if anyone as had this problem when I set of in 1st gear and put my foot down there is a big loud rattle noise coming from the front I really can't work it out. It doesn't do it when I drive normal.

What does it sound like? Heavy or light? Might be a loose exhaust heat shield

Nice one just picked it up last Friday but only took it out today and got a really bad noise when you put your foot down any ideas

Was a strong engine in this one mate! The noise could be the exhaust on the subframe mate. Does it rattle/vibrate through the car?

Yeah but only when you put you foot down when you drive normal nothing.

It feels like a really strong engine I had a 182 and this one feels a stronger engine. Was anything done to it.

Yeah just been under it and it is catching on the sub frame

Thanks

When in my ownership it had Rs lower inlet, prospeed exhaust (still fitted), itg air filter and custom air feeds into the airbox.
The fella listing it on eBay put it down as a cat d but it's a cat c mate. Also, it was me who bought and repaired it!! Damage was to the o/s for reference. Needed a wishbone and a rear beam to fix. Gen Renault wishbones fitted and a 2nd hand beam.
The custom cup badges were done by me as well! Here's what it looked like in my ownership:

Loved this car and was very sorry to see it go tbh.
