were you in a high gear with low revs, and you gave it quite a bit of throttle? if yes, then probably it was the engine labouring somewhat. The engine is struggling so vibration occurs. If it is accompanied by a highish-pitch 'popping noise' from the engine then the engine is also pinking/pinging (tesco fuel does this if the engine is allowed to labour)- which is quite undesirable.
