Technical Gurgle gurgle gurgle !

I've owned two Tipo 1.4 ie's since 1993. The current 1994 model has now developed a nasty gurgling sound from somewhere near the centre console, It gets louder with revs. My old car did this too before I sold it. Can anyone tell me what it is, and if I can fix it myself ?
Cheers.[^]

Its the sound of your cooling water being pumped through your heater matrix- Probably some air in system so bleed by opening your water filler cap (when engine is cool)....however I have had my tipo for 12 years and its done this for at least 4 without consequence.
