Engine Clanking

Hi i have a 1997 3.4 jaguar XJ8 with 87000 miles on the clock. There is a serious clanking noise coming from the engine which is worse at start up but is continous throughout operation. As of yet have not managed to get it into a dealer although several mechanics have had a look but do not have a clue. If you could point me in the right direction that would be great!
