Ride is very smooth on good quality road surfaces but thumping/knocking noises occur when driving over road imperfections - manhole covers, potholes and speed reducing humps.

You dont say if noise is coming from the front or rear .If from front , common cause is anti-roll bar link arms .

Many thanks for your suggested causes - not quite sure if knocking noise is from front but thanks for suggestions that it could be caused by loose anti-roll bar +/or exhaust system ... I will definitely get these possible faults checked out at local garage asap.
