When you replaced the drive shafts, did you replace the universal joints at the wheels? I had similar problems on my B Class and that was the cause.

They were 2 brand new driveshafts no parts replaced on old ones just straight swap old for new

The mechanic has checked every bush on the car all seem good

Mechanic has also looked at gearbox mount and engine mounts look ok front ones there is a possibility they need replacement bit ot wouldn't cause a vibration at just 60 mph

Driven the car again today and it seems that the vibration starts at just over 40mph very mild and gets to the worst at 62mph it still does it in neutral and eases off as you slow slow and gone completely below 45 until you start to gane speed again it returns and get worse as you get to 65 . Its still there under hard or mild acceleration no matter what gear of rpm does seem worse if your in 6 or 7 and not as bad if your in 3rd doing 65

I have a similar problem with my c250. Kwik fit told me that the wheels are slightly out of shape. They have put the best two wheels on the front, but there is a very minor vibration.
