Sooo, finally managed to get hold of an engine mount, it's a dogbone link, and is apparently a dealer only part. No dealer local to me had it in stock, and thought it'd take at least a week to get ordered in. I was planning on coming down to see Curt today anyway and then going to Bournemouth to see Fooby, so I called Portsmouth's dealer yesterday afternoon and they said they'd have it the next morning, so that was pretty cool.
Picked it up this morning, and drove over to Curt's. It was pretty easy to change actually, as we didn't need to actually jack the engine or anything, as the mount that was causing chronic knocking was the one which is a stabiliser.
This may have been why

This was the only part that was keeping it connected:

Needless to say, big thanks to Curt for doing it, and the car feels muchhh better to drive now.
