You get a rattle from rear seat catches which sound like it's coming from rear susp . Put a piece of insulating tape on bar the rear seat hook catches on and try car .

handbrake cables are comon for rattling on the fiesta,www.fordfiestast.co.uk. Lots of lads on this site have had a similar problem.

Perhaps it's the spare wheel bracket under the car?

The heat shield underneath mine, just above the exhaust system has come loose and causes rattling. Have a quick look underneath.
