60mph.
Corsa B 12v is exactly 'half' the revs. So 70mph is 3.5krpm etc.

Nah mate, was driving my Dad's V8. Trust me, you'll be in the first handfull of people to find out the moment it turns a wheel in anger again. In fact, you'll know in advance sir.
You'll probably hear me as I head to the highlands to have a whiney, belt driven, licence losing thing installed.
The Pug doesn't actually have a 5th gear and if I tried to put it in 4th before the engine was at near china syndrome rpm, it would just grind to a halt and pull a sarcastic face at me. Or slap me.

God bless the surrender monkey. That sounds fantastic too If it comes near Scottyland, I'll be standing at the border, waiting to dive on the back of it and start licking it's V8 goodness profusely.
