check out you top mounts, the spherical bearings have a tendancy of causing a creaking sound when they are worn out.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Basically jack up one side of the car so the front wheel is off the ground then place one finger on the strut nut and then leaver the wheel up and down with a bar, if you feel any movement then the top mount needs replacement.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Mr2s don't have a spherical top mount as standard do they.
Anyway it would clunk not creak.
The the fact it don't do it in the wet is a dead give away ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
