I got Matilda (standard Mpi) to 110 mph on the M40 without realising it. I shat me pants when I looked at the speedo & I won't try it again. :)

80 mph is the fastest we go nowadays, and that's normally just for overtaking.

they are not too bad over 120mph, they quieten down and even on a sc/cr box with s/c drops it goes quieter too, the only thing you have to watch out for is that the top part of your door frame is strong as they bend out quite a bit doing over 100mph

i've had mine up to 130.3mph on a track with speed measuring equipment and 2POB, it did have more to go but i ran out of straight line track and trying to stop a mini from that speed.. hmmm fun.. lol

On the rolling road with the final drive i was runing it would do 170mph lol but on the road i think the max would be about 140mph

I've been sat IN a modern Seat Ibiza doing 130 and that was scary enough.
In a mini... bicycle clips anyone?
