Hi, will look into the meets i hvent been to any yet as the car was standard when i got it so now i have modded the look to how i want it, trying to find a way to upload pics but cant work out how to do it lol,
Would the noise get louder as it gets hotter if it was the heat shield im waiting on delivery for a milltek flexi so when it comes i wil try removing the heat shield when i fit that.

Welcome to the site mate I'm also from Blackpool quite a few of us around here, we all use photo bucket to upload pictures and copy the image URL, you join up in here http://www.fordfiestast.co.uk/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=115653&an=0&page=0#115653 and like suggested before the sound sounds like a heat shield problem if you can't find it best way to get rid of it is to wack the stereo up

Hope this helps pal

Mine does the same thing, sometimes won't do it for a few days and then other days it's completely intolerable. I'm pretty sure it's bushes somewhere that are knackered, it's one of my next jobs to get done.

Welcome to the site btw !

Get yourself a photobucket account, upload all the pics you want on there then use the img codes they generate to get your pics on here! If you have a iPhone they have an app

Indeed! You've been de-classified as a Blackpool member following your Spurs supporting, yet Manchester United shorts wearing Fiasco! You can form the Fleetwood Fiddlers

Looking good, i'm in Hindley, Wigan so not too far from you either. The rattling noise could be so many things it's really hard to diagnose isn't it. I assume it doesn't do it if you're not driving? (ie sit on your drive revving it?).
