well i have done some long runs at 160 and once dr.diesel took it to 195 and hung around there for a while. my car has the stock transmission so you could imagine the kind of rpms it was turning.

haha. stock i think 160 is about all a person can do in a td.

well thats all i can do

well to be honest if i hold it floored i can get to about 165..

and if the wind is at my back and im going down hill i can get it up to like 170-175'ish.

i need to talk to this giles person. what's his screen name?

i;ve done 105, and 110 would have been at the flick of my foot, but this would have put me at about 4500, and i really didn't like going that fast so i slowed down

trevor i believe your speeds are in miles right?

the ones i mentioned were in kilometers. so i dont want to give the impression that my td going 175mph down hill LOL

yeah, that would be the real speed with a 70hp TD Mk2. Although I've passed over 180Km/h (speedometer read). Horizontal road.

I wish te automatic had a taller 4th gear

I cruise 90km/h@2000rpm

burn_your_money · « **Reply #37 on:** September 18, 2006, 03:10:05 pm »

That's a lower RPM then what I cruise at with my 4S. I think it's around 2500
