:eek:

I really am going to have to come and visit you lot soon.

140mph (indicated on the speedo) on the Nurburgring.

so what are we saying here..... 128 bog standard -- 140 after remaps? (162 after strapping a rocket to it?!!)

standard car, German Autobahn, speedo read 130mph on the flat

140mph downhill

50 through roadworks on the M20 ( scamera vans around )

Before remap 130 indicated( on an empty private road around dawn), not even tried with remap.

Wow....didn't realise remapping had that much of a marked effect on top speed. That's impressive....an extra 12 mph.....

Are you having a Turkish?

Sorry? A Turkish?

I wasn't being sarcastic....it's genuine. Diesels are normally rubbish at high speeds.

Mines electronically limited to 155... Without that, the possibilities are endless...

ROFL.

Sorry ROFL again.

Some of the speeds mentioned so far in here, do make me laugh....

Why?

I'll put this to you. Myself, and a friend both bought new fabia vRS's on 05 plates. His left me for dead at 130. His showed 145 before it finally reached v max, mine only 130. Both standard.

Mine remapped only shows 145 on the speedo if the wind is behind me, i'll concede that, but I don't doubt any of the claims thus far. 162 is possible, just.

255mph - oh its a 2.0l

The vRS seems to hit a wall at 110mph. Getting to the 128mph rated top speed would be very difficult in standard guise I'd have thought. If a remap opens up the power in the higher end of the rev range it must make for a better top speed. Even if it's not higher it'll get there quicker.

i have had about 130 verified on the road angel the clock was showing about 140 ish but that is as far as it would go i think
