Would be interesting to see what speed guys with the DCI (mapped and not mapped) have achieved, I put my foot down this morning just out of interest to see what speed it would achieve but had to slow down to exit the motorway. I was pleasently suprised that the speedo was reading 10mph more than the book time when i started to slow down. I can't imagine it will go much faster than this but I felt it could've gone a little bit further

I normally cruise 70-100 on the motorway but just thought why not its an open road, nobody here.

dont forget that most speedos read higher than actual speed about 6-10%
best way to check real speed is with gps sat nav read out

checked my speedo against Gps, averages about 4kmh to slow, so not too bad.Find it best to read from the bottom edge of the needle.
Then it's not far out at all

Had the needle past 130 & it was still pulling.

all in kmh obviously ........ im sure they would do a bit more on a private road :rockon:

Or continental europe:shiny[1]:

yes kmh... obviously

Mine too was reading over 130 and still pulling... I didn't expect it to be honest. At my old job I regularly drove the "pool" car mondeo 2.0 tdci and I floored that one on 'a private road' one time, about 130 and it didn't want pushing. I was VERY suprised that the meg still wanted to pull, not a lot but was still fairly suprised. These 1.9 engines must be very robust...

Forgot to quote my model, only have a 1.9dci.
