Acceleration Rattle?

I've had my 55 reg 1.4 fiesta style for about a month and all this time it has had a rattle when accelerating at around 2000rpm sounds like its coming from the front left of the car, does this hot or cold in any gear but most noticable in higher gears, it could be the exhaust manifold but unsure. Does anyone have any ideas about this please?

it is sometimes hard to determine where noises originate from but have a look for broken springs,suspension wear,steering joints,brake pad a/rattle springs,loose baffles in exhaust,good luck
