mine is a mk5 2.5 high roof 100 with 190 back end :lol: and is screaming at 75mph and that with your foot on the floor pushing it into the rubber mat let the foot up a bit and it starts slowing down to 65mph so i think 65mph is my max

I got the 120mph out of a swb transit 125 once coming back form wait i leave that bit to myself :lol: i was trying to go faster but the steering got very light so i slowed down

129 MPH on Sat Nav one night in Germany ...
200PS...tweeked by Vantuner.
So we reckon pushing out about 245PS
You could ask Coconut as I sent him the picture of my Sat Nav...not something I'd recommend taking a picture of at that speed at night... :shock:

On my 135 jumbo camper van had to fit cruse control to stop it running away with me on the motorway ever time I looked at the speedo it would be doing 90 mph and if I'd put my foot down it would still accelerate a fully loaded camper van at that speed is not good .the most important with a van is how quick it gets up to the legal speed limit and hold that speed I now the 135 engine has got a bad rep on the forum but the big hill on the a55 comeing back from Holyhead hit the bottom at 60 mpg and put your foot down and go over the top at 70 mph that's more important then top speed

No idea. We boodle along at 55-60 MPH. Only go a bit higher if we have to overtake something.

I've had my old 135ps against my old standard 200ps and the 200ps ate it and I've had my old remapped 140ps Sportvan (170ps) against Azer's remapped 200ps and again the 200ps ate it :lol:
