Default Hearing a "thump" sound whenever I go over a bump?

Mmm, alright, well, I bought a new EF, and I noticed on my way home from sydney that the front end of the car has soemthing wrong suspention wise.

The suspention works as it should, but when going over rough road the front end sometimes has a thump in it. The shocks are fine, they feel nice and new and there's no bounce in them.

I was thinking it might have been a worn rubber boot? Or am I kidding myself?

I'll check it out when I change the oil, but it handles beautifully, so I can';t see there being a major problem :/

Any idea would be nice though

It's definitly in the front end, I have a feeling it's just the front left.
