check the exhaust downpipe isn't touching the chassis.....





Also, check your engine mounts aren't knackered!!

check all engine & gearbox mounts also check the UJ's in your front prop shaft and also if the exhaust is sat to close to the chassis or front prop shaft

I'd check the cv joints first, most likely to wear and cause a vibration under acceleration, then move onto the suggestions above.
