Whistling sound, similar to wind at 40mph

I have only owned my 2012 1.3 4wd for one month. When speed reaches approx. 40mph, there is a whistling sound, like a draughty car. If I accelerate away, it disappears.
Am reluctant to contact dealers, feel sheepish.
Any ideas, please?

Strange

Maybe check sills around windows and doors does it go if you open a window?

Is it just at 40? Could be from engine bay?

Difficult to determine when driving.

Anything above 30mph all I can hear is my mud tyres. :)
