You gotta love Germany

Where was the rev counter?

:jawbig:

Looks familiar, although I wasn't in Germany at the time.

For me that speed equates to 4200rpm (more or less)

:eek: 666

ive been past that. took mine to limp mode kicking in going totaly flat out.....got bang on 150!.......erm......yeah i was in Germany also.

I've not quite got 150, thats a still from a vid... the bloody tape ran out I'd say I got another 3-4mph

Hehehehe. Not quite 150, but considering the car it is amazing.

(and yes my front wheels were on the ground at the time........... )

:P

Quite something for a 1.2 12v lol did reach 115 but no photo evidence :(

Shame runway wasn't longer.

Actually I turned the car on its side and took the picture.

Richard- you did well getting the 1.2 up to that speed! I could only manage 90mph and got wasted by a scooter with gears at the same time...

have had it there a number of times along this runway... even with a hefty amount of fuel in. Guess its down to our own driving.... i would gain a lot of speed in 2nd/3rd i.e red line on both of them before changing.

Top speed off 99mph is ********!! Don't know where they get that from.

Although its on verge of killing the 1.2 at these speeds... it doensn't noticably struggle or make much noise about it,

Great lump! just shame fabia is such a heavy car.

Here is my pd100 in controlled conditions

Have you checked the accuracy of your speedo against a satnav system. Sounds suspect to me tbh. Where you driving down mountainside by any chance?

what does that equate to in MPH?

135mph if I've calculated that correctly. :eek:

I suspect it's more like 121mph allowing for 10% speedo error. Still good going, though!

3mph out according to sat nav

Against both my road angle and a hand held Garmin my speedo over reads by 3mph till 90 then 5 right up the range from there. But makes a good picture and it's only as inaccurate as the next persons car... so...
