Jaguar XF - strange noise coming from the rear above 50mph

[topless360]

I recently purchased an XF from a Jag dealer (Premium Luxury, 61 reg, 21k miles) with the usual perks including a 2 year warranty.

On the drive home I noticed a strange noise above 50mph, I'd describe it as a buzzing/humming noise and it appears to come from the rear of the car. I have recorded an audio clip here: https://youtu.be/--41YzVdOvw

The noise doesn't change if I manually change gears/revs and also continues if I drop it into neutral. The noise seems to be related to the speed of the car rather than throttle application/engine rpm.

I will of course give the Dealer a call but anybody have a clue as to what it could be?

I initially thought the same but it happens in a straight line and doesn't seem to alter when cornering.

From what I've read wheel bearing noise occurs under cornering, could be wrong though?

Feathered tyre. Have worn fronts (tracking out) been swapped front to rear?

Tyres all look relatively new and I would've hoped Jaguar should pick up relatively simple things like that during their preparation.

The car is booked in for next Saturday, I'll update once I have an answer.
