Default 2001 Ka Ticking, Clicking Noise Which Increases with speed!

Hi All

Just brought a 2001 Ka for the Mrs and have noticed that it has a strange clicking, ticking noise coming from the engine bay and i'm completely baffled to what it could be! We have noticed that it does get louder with speed and i was wondering maybe if anyone else had this problem and had any ideas to what i could be?

Thanks any help is really appreciated
