Hard to diagnose without hearing noise , could be wheel bearing or as suggested clutch / trans . A short road test should be enough for a garage to locate fault .

My wife has very similar problem and suspect gearbox also on a 'Y' plate. The whinning noise only aparant when gears engaged. Do you have any idea approx how much replacement gearbox would be? was thinking around £500 mark??
Only had the car for 6 months and already had to replace fuel tank as warped and now gearbox....
