Fastest you've driven thread?
Hi Folks, I've been away from the forums for a little while but realised I should stop by and take a peek.
Did that thread about the fastest speed you've actually driven get deleted?

Re: Fastest you've driven thread?
The old 1.5dCi Megane would do 100 all day long without issue, pushed it up to an indicated 115mph very late one night on a very empty section of the M58.
Not had the new Laguna past the 100mph mark yet, but my old 1.9dCi Laguna I had flat out on a private track, hit an indicated 137mph and it frightend the life out of me!

Re: Fastest you've driven thread?
they slow up quite abit after 120. on a private airfield mine did 130 but i wouldnt want to go much faster than that in it. plu sthe speedo is well out at those speeds, 120 is more like 108!

Re: Fastest you've driven thread?
120mph on the Autobahn with roof down. Its not as windy as I thought. A bit like having the sun roof open at speed.

No the windows were up, with the windows down I think you will be blown out of the drivers seat

Not as fast as some of you! - 130 in a Volvo V70 estate (company car, not mine). BTW Stevie - always loved the 355s especially the spider!! But a bit out of my league I'm afraid. See below - sigh........

Re: Fastest you've driven thread?
proven fact if you bimble in your car everyday you are more likly to have problems,if every now and again you thrash it within an inch of its life,you actually agitate all of the oil in the sump and get all the bearings etc etc moving freely,
so basically if you want to bimble around then please do, but please dont moan at the rest of us that occassionally go for a little bit of a blitz,and just to add a little bit 187 mph going down to Le Mans in a TVR speed 12,we then parked up for 20mins before going through the next toll and getting a speeding fine >> WHAT A RUSH !!!!
