I think around 125 in 4th...
But that is per speedo, not GPS

I do
I meant dan :devil:
For the JTD i think its about:-
1st - 25mph
2nd - 45mph
3rd - 75mph
4th - 95mph
5th - 130mph
I dont extend it to these speeds though as there is no need to

pmsl
ive seen 135 on the clock, on a track of course
and it was an indicated 128 on the GPS im sure the abarth will do more than 140, other members before have quoted 144 every little bit counts
lolAnd there's always ways of squeezing more out of it too :devil:
Once, me and a mate had an LDV 7.5 ton Pantec at max...bu which I mean the needle was bouncing off the needle rest at the other end of the speedo Up the M3 in quite nasty wind....never again

I think IIRC there is a electronic limiter on the top speed, as the revs were nowhere near the rev limiter and she wouldn't go any faster
