Right, this is starting to annoy me now,
Basically when i go over bumps my car sqeaks, being a perfectionist i cant have this, so what is this likely to be?
I think it may be the bushes? right? wrong?

I had something simular on mine, annoyed me for ages. Turned out to be the exhaust gasket.
When the car is warm put it in gear and bring the clutch up gently with the brake on, this will make the car judder and if the speak occurs then as well it may well be exhaust related.

Did you try the exhaust gasket? As its at the manifold/cat join so will sound like its coming from the front

im sorting this problem with mine at the moment. try your rear engine mount/ support its made from rubber and it gets like sloppy over time so your engine wobbles about over every little bump. mine is really pissing me off and im sure this is the problem. some people smear silicone on the sides to strengthen the rubber. i am going to buy a new one let me know if you want any pictures.
get sumbody to lift the clutch with the handbrake and you have a look underneath you shud see what i mean if the engine moves.
