:lol:

in 6th mine is @1,750 rpm doing 70 mph and 2,250rpm is 90mph.
so 130mph would only be 3250rpm. :shock:

with my current power i cant get that high without being in 5th though.

Mine's is a mk6 85ps t260 swb. Thanks to martynx mapping skills, it does 109mph on the flat and 113mph (so far) downhill. :lol: On my german holiday of course! Pulls like a train 1st & 2nd in wet, forget it. :D Getting a bit fed up of A pillar trims (up side of windscreen) blowing off and flapping and banging, sh!t myself every time, new clips on order tho! All according to speedo, will ave to rake out sat nav n give it a go........
It may be my van but its still ford's baby!

115 350 LWB Hitop, 75mph max, it's restricted.

Prefer it that way, should save fuel. Pulls the weight in it extremely well.
