Ok.

as i set off from standing, and go in to first gear as i accelarate i hear like a sound, like vibrating, metal of some sort.

Any ideas?

happens in first and second and third, after that its fine.

maybe exhaust heatshield

Was just about to say that. Mine was doing that a couple of weeks back, the noise gets bloody annoying!

my centre section of exhaust vibrates like mad when i turn left and even worse in the wet, and fine when i turn right, it keeps knocking against the underneath and is really loud. Going to get a supersprint centre section to sort it out lol

Also got a new cv joint clip.
