Broken strut?
Worn or missing suspension bushings?
Broken motor or transaxle mounts?
Loose caliper.

It COULD be quite a few things.

Well it could be a number of things.Does it do it only when you turn corners,Doeit only do it when you hit the brake does it do it under acceleration?.....If when you turn corners it goes clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk it is your CV joints.If it clunks once it could be a bearing in the top of your suspension strut.Or a tie rod could need replacing.Or a wheel bearing on it way out.A way to check this is to switch off the car lock the steering and lightly try to turn the wheel back n forth to see if it has any play..If it does it when you brake it could be a loose caliper on you brakes.Under acceleration it could again be a bearing or cv.
