Hi Beretta682. :welcome2:

What wheels does it have on??? Are they standard Landrover ones????
Vibration at that speed is nearly always due to wheels not being balanced, fitted correctly.
Maybe a flat spot on one? Damage of some sort. Or if they are after market wheels, then not correct size and therfore not centred correctly on the hub.

Hope this helps.
