And how often has it come in handy? I highly doubt that most of us on the site would ever require the 240km/h speedo over the 220km/h!

I had to stop at 210 in my Ghia cos I ran out of road, and it was still accelerating... So I would guess that 240km/h would near be a reality.

If a VT can do 227km/h, and Falcon should easily better that!

Yep.

If someone has got their XR6 / 8 over 230 kays (on a circuit / strip / airport and legally :wink: ) Let me know :shock:

The only people that see cred in a 240 speedo are 15-17 year olds...
