Default Is this symptom of pads wearing or more sinister ?

Lately im getting a clunk from the front of my VTR.
Its seems to happpen when changing direction, for instance - doing a three point turn. During the clutch down back into first, turn the wheel CLUNK.

But mainly I wondered if it had something to do with this, cause lately when I brake, just before I stop i'm getting this kinda like streching noise. As if something metal is being put under a bit of force like a spring or something, then moving back.

Thats the only way i can describe it. Also i feel like i can actually feel it under my feet like a slight knock when it happens. Im just wondering if these two things are related cause ive heard people mention suspension could be the issue here ?

General saxo suspension wear, could be drop links (very common), bottom ball joint or bushes. Get a garage to put it on the ramp and find the play then fix it up.
