Default Droning noise on mk2 mondeo whilst driving?

In last few weeks when driving my car-i get a slight droning noise at about 30mph-cant hear it at lower or higher speeds-doesn't seem to get any worse when i corner or anything.

tonite one by one jacked up all 4 wheels and rocked them-on front drivers side wheel i get a very slight amount of movement-is this wheel bearing or anything else u think on suspension going?

have asked on modeo owners club website but sometimes u can get faster replies on here-thanks

Sounds like the wheel bearing to me if there is some play in it! However I would have thought that it would have got worse on left hand corners if its the front right one thats playing up!

maybe its just not got to stage yet where i can feel it round corners-will try and find some corners weekend that i can go round in circles at around 30ish to see if it does it.

Bearings seem to go about 100-120k miles, had them go on my mk1 and the phase 2 version had them replaced before I bought it, cheap enough to fix, but do both at the same time

mine gone a bit early then as done 81k-must be all that power lol-any idea on price-looking on ebay the front bearings cost about 18-20 quid each-any idea on how long it takes a garage to fit them as if not much saves me hassle.
