Off the top of my head I've seen drop links, springs and damper noise discussed on the forum...just throwing out ideas.
Sorry to say it but have you ensured everything in the boot is secure? Eg: Jack?

Have you tried getting in the back with the hatch cover removed and try to pin point very accurately where it is coming from. My son has a 3TS which knocked from the front passenger door. Turned out to be friction knock between the door and the frame. Diagnosed it by opening the passenger door slightly whilst driving very slowly and with obvious caution.
