Anyone out there who can shed light on this problem as I'm getting to the point of not wanting to drive it as it's !Removed! embarrassing lmao

The brake slider pins wear on Avensises, perhaps the Celicas do the same?  It makes a light rattle sound, more prevalent at low speeds on uneven ground.  Check if your sound disappears if you press the brakes lightly.

Thankfully my previous Celica didn't give me any of those issues...but heat shields can be notorious for rattles.

Pins might be it will check that out thanks ...heat shields all intact and solid . Hahahaha if I keep going the car will be in bits soon ...lol and I have acquired a bald patch on my head with all this head scratching over the past 3 months

Well on ur advice I have replaced brake calipers with brand new ones all round and still have this issue ...so that another box ticked but still a prob hopefully I will get to the bottom of this issue

Sorry I can't really suggest anything else.  Good luck tho 🙂

Assuming it's a rattle not a "clonk"...could it be something really silly like that low front grille come adrift.?
