If it honestly sounds and feels like a driveshaft or gearbox failure do not try and drive the car. Can you get it recovered to wherever normally does your work? The nuts are in the centre of the wheel and can lose torque, which leads to clonking, but nothing as significant as you are describing.

Well the good news is - if you managed to drive home your driveshafts are still connected and your gearbox works!

Is it a 5spd and does it have an LSD?

Then Im afraid to say that its probably your diff thats gone.

Its not a cheap fix.

its an engine out job - so you may as well fit a new clutch and valve springs at the same time
