What runs under that side of the car - exhaust, and that's about it. Could be extractors hitting the chassis rails (doubtful though). Could also be worn roll bar bushes (chassis ones, not the link ones) - this is more likely. When I first got mine, it happened all the time, and bushes was the issue.

My car has a similar noise on passenger side when I reverse turning left, but being a V8, I think it is the extractors hitting a chassis bolt - there's not much room there. I have already replaced the roll bar bushes with nolathane ones, so pretty sure that's not the problem on mine.
