No. I am not having a laugh See other F28 topends. Please take your opinions elsewhere if all you have to contribute is idle crap.

Seeing as this thread is still going...
As a passenger, 135mph in my Dad's old Calibra redtop, 142mph in my Dad's Leon Cupra R. In my Corsa, 92mph and still had a bit to go LOL

90 out of my clio, which was shuddering and almost falling to pieces. I go dual carriage way > M4 > dual again to work so probably 70 - 80 on m4, 50 - 60 dual carriage way
No faster thou as its stupid and my car would probably explode

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.

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
