New Sound
Coming home from work tonight my XJR started making a new sound. It's coming from the rear of the car (or at least behind me). It goes woo woo woo woo - kind of like the spaceships in a really old black and white science fiction movie. It slows when I slow. When I stop and then get under way again, the sound doesn't return for a few minutes, but then comes back. It doesn't happen when I rev the car in neutral or park. I'm thinking a rear wheel bearing. What else should I consider?
How long can I drive it before it really goes. I'm only asking because I have to go about 400 miles tomorrow morning...of course...
Thanks in advance.

Brakes are new-ish all the way around - ceramic pads. I have thought about a caliper dragging, but it's a strange sound, not like a brake squeal. Air pressure is good in the tires. Anything else? Any other bearings to consider other than the wheel bearings?
