Saw 160 KPH in the astra the other day..... Fealt so smooth and controlable. Coasted back down to 100kph and it fealt like we were doing about 20..... 
I bottled it and back off, thats plenty quick enough (book is 152, so about 145 ish in reality)....
Speeding is bad.
why the fuck are you quoting in kph

90 mph in a 1.2 8v any more is just stupid and tbh it would go much more anyway
maybe if i found a big hill on a windy day i could get 92 mph
If you go down hill 100mph is achievable

ive got a 1.6 16V but wont take it over 100, i dont want a ban thanks very much. personally i'd rather spend abit of money and get some sessions or a track day somewhere. which leads to my next question, are there any tracks that do sessions in the north west area? you guys seem to be the ones to ask. also how much are we talking?

You didn't say where you did the speed. For all anyone "high up" that is reading this knows, you could have done it on a track?
