my bora has started to make a clunking sound when i accelerate as if something is loose. anyone any ideas, its mostly after ive braked and than accelerated again after. got new antiroll bar bushes fitted a few months ago, could it be something to do with the antiroll bar?

It could be dodgy wishbone bushes, or even a broken engine mount. Get someone to watch the front wheels whenever you release the clutch and see if the wheel moves toward the back of the car.

Gearbox mount i'd have thought. Soft as sh*te on these. Way to test is pull handbrake on hard ,and in first gear just let the clutch up a bit a few times. Get someone else to have a look underneath.
