Focus mk2.5 1.6 petrol - vibration through accelerator pedal

Hi, I just wondered if anyone else who has a 1.6 petrol 99bhp model (or another engine) experiences vibrations/buzzing sensation through the accelerator pedal? Car has done 60k. It happens especially between 3000rpm to 4000rpm (motorway 65-80mph), and is felt worse when lifting off the pedal to coast slightly. The car drives fine, no problems other than this. Is this a trait with this model or could it be motor mounts or driveline related? I had an advisory on my mot for top strut mounts,  any possibility these could vibrate at a particular frequency? Any help would be much appreciated!

    Sorry for the late reply. No, there was never any definitive answers (I had the top strut mounts replaced but the problem didn't go away immediately), however once I reached about 80,000 it had dissappeared!
