Its on an RR, can you not hear it beeping because the back wheels arnt moving? No matter how hard you try, it would not launch at that speed because of the turbo lag.

The car will never be capable of sub 6 second 0-60 with just a re-map

No wonder your turbo is fcuked. 140mph...lol

Just because a remap enables you to drive that fast, doesn't mean you should. Surely you would get oil starvation at that speed.

Well not so sure - the lights reflecting in the speedo would indicate it's moving, as would the traction control kicking in in 1st/2nd... Can't deny or confirm really - I've only driven off the line like that once (yesterday!) as a MkV Golf with 18" alloys kept on bothering me at the multiple traffic lights on way home... By time I hit 3rd gear he was a good 100 yards back and it felt pretty rapid, again much faster than the previous cars with 0-60 of 7.9/8.0 that I've owned before.

I would confirm properly but I don't really want to break mine Only used in anger against people who wear white caps and gold chains

Twice the speed limit

So what do you call fast for a £10,000 hatch back then

I Agree 140 Is Fast For £8000 [£14000 I Think New] But Some People Go On As If 140 Is Really Really REALLLLLY Fast Lol.

Its not fast in cars that are built to go that fast IE your porsches etc as they will stop from 140 to 0 faster than you could stop from 70-0. In a punto it is fast regardless of what you say. The car isnt built to sustain that speed, the brakes wont be up to stopping it quickly etc etc etc.

Well what was the car beeping twice about then And why only when the car is moving, not while it was just started??

Fiat will do what they can to get out of paying for work, why would they want to give stuff for free

Be prepared for the £1100 repair for that mistake

It Has Always Bleeped Randomly Since It Was Mapped .. And Why Would [If I Could Find A Rollong Road] I Keep It At 140 For Sooo Long At A Stand Still ??

Earlier On I Even Claimed I Had More Than 140 Out Of It Which I Know No One Is Going To Believe

First Bleep Is 'cause I Set My Speed Limit Thing At 60 So It Bleeps At 60 And The Second One Was 'cause Of The "Check Lights" Warning

 

[adamcot]

It Has Always Bleeped Randomly Since It Was Mapped ..

so it beeps with no messages on the display

I smell BS

 

[theDTP]

Also Before It Was Re-Mapped I Got 0-60 In Hight 7's .. Like 7.9 Maybe 8.1 Tops .. Opposed To The Standard 9.4 =S

 

[theDTP]

so it beeps with no messages on the display

I smell BS

Who Says There Is No Message ?? It Goes Off Around 5 Or So Seconds After The Bleep
