Strange noise like vibrating rubbing together only appears after 40mph, goes when you turn right, goes if you put your foot down & comes back when you let off ? doesnt sound like the gear box but anyone else got any ideas ?

Call that a brake down? That's called the life in the ownership of a French Car..

Its the Driveshaft dude. Most likely anyway. Its more than okay to drive.
