Hey paul I would scrap it and buy one from craiglist you can find one cheap
SOURCE: Three day old Indesit washing machine
Is it a maytag? My maytag front load washing machine had 2 long bolts with plastic braces on them, to keep the drum still during shipping. Mine would bang and shake all over. I got the book out before I finally figured it out. I had to take the back cover off and remove the bolts and plastic braces over them. They look like they' 8 inches long or so. It works great now.

SOURCE: machine bangs and jumps all over as soon as the drum starts moves
It is the pulley shaft that has worn out more than likely. Remove the back cover and give the belt a tug or two if there is ANY play at all the shaft has gotten worn on the pulley assy. If it were the bearings I would be surprised as they don't go out nearly as often as the pulley. New pulley and belt should lengthen the life of the appliance considerably. Good Luck
SOURCE: the drum bangs on the spin
Two possibles for this are aloose balance block or cracked drum spider.The front block is most prone to coming loose.
To check spider rotate drum little by little and pull towards you to check for movement.
Post back if further help needed.
Thankyou
SOURCE: LOUD BANGING WHEN ON FULL SPIN
when my old machine did this it was because it was not correctly balanced and therefore the drum was banging on the side of machine.............once corrected this error disappeared xx
SOURCE: Ive just bought a secondhand indesit w103. It
they are shipping bolts,but usually they come with 4 make sure all shipping bolts are off
