It'll also tell you in the owners handbook.
Tbh if you can't drive yet you shouldn't be worrying about top speed yet

why to you care about top speed when your not even old enough to learn?
doesnt matter what mods you got anyway, they will only go as fast as a gearbox is limited to

many years ago when I owned a 1.4 16V sport I hit 115mph on the clock, wouldnt go any faster and as I recall book speed is around 112, which sounds about right when comparing it with similar powered cars.
