Bloody hell! You mini reach 100mph!!! Wow. Mind you it was a Copper wasn't it? My ickle mini was a City E (for "economical", you know). I sometimes reached 80mph (downhill with the wind behind me) and I felt that was speedy and death-defying in what was essentially a tin matchbox on wheels. *sigh* - miss my mini sometimes - but I feel safer these days.
Anyhoo, Andy - I agree with Sam and Jo. Try getting your tracking and wheel balancing done. My mini also vibrated (at about 50mph if I recall so I drive at maxed out 60/70mph, unless prevailing winds aided) - I think its something that cars do with age. Felix doesn't vibrate. Although sometimes I fear he may topple sideways if a stiff gust of wind hits him when up on a high bridge or on top the M62...
