 ::)I've had an indicated 143/4 but voted 131+ I don't think a 2.5 will do much over 130 despite what the speedo tells our ego. I quit while i was ahead, lifted off & let her slow down without braking.
    Later that day TB told me my tyres were only rated 130mph.
      Tried out of curiousity, no need to do it again. Started to feel very light for a big car! :-X

Got my diesel omega to 200 km/h (around 120-130 mph) but then i decided that fuel consumption is way too high  :o

I should imagine these speeds were mostly done in other parts of the world, if not, the forum really should not be promoting and bragging about these types of speeds, I thought we were better than that.

I often look at the renault clit sport 197 forum and when these topics are discussed the renault admins often leave comments and lock the posts.

We cannot be seen to be doing these speeds.

IMHO.

No doubt you will have comments about this, but thats my opinion which all of us are entitled to.

I thought I made clear that my highest speed from the MV6 was on the continent  :-/

I very purposely have not mentioned the tractor or zx10, as the fastest speed from them was in UK

Do you know what I think?

I think that,  there should be one day per year or bi-annually, when a certain stretch of motorway in the country is made one way and all rules lifted, so we can legally have a blast!  Instead of speeding regularly with the risk of slow vehicles hindering us....  Let battle commence ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D :y
