First thing to get checked is the wheel balancing, should cost £20 for the lot.

its been balenced going back to the garage where that was done tonight

did you tighten the rear shock bolts with the wheels fitted and the car lowered to the ground?

It could be worn bushes. That causes vibration too.

If my spellings s**te its because of the cider.

A 1.1 at 90MPH, what can you expect

Could be a bent wheel?

I got a full set of new tyres, they balanced the fronts right but made a pig's ear of the rears. When I swapped front to rear as they were wearing, the steering wheel shook violently above 85. Had them done by a proper garage and it's smoooooth now.
