What Car?

And that was on a German Autobahn presumably?

Sat Nav indicated 152mph, not too sure on how accurate my sat nav is, but it was bloody quick.

152mph from a Peugeot 106?

How about 'no' for that.

Private road, brothers mate owns a fair bit of land which he has a runway drag strip on and a small track.

Guys, before you get too carried away please bear in mind its Arrufel. Author of many previous hilarious threads of far-fetched LOL.

It was a track a minute ago?

Edit: aah good, you've remembered you said track and had a quick edit

Memphis · 28 Feb 2008 at 21:46

Ta for that.

But I agree with Fox (for once), and exactly which track in the UK is long enough to get a Pug up to 150+mph?

Memphis · 28 Feb 2008 at 21:47

Ah, right, I see where this is going.

I've missed the annual Aruffell BS thread.

Aruffell · 28 Feb 2008 at 21:48

Well that speed on the speedo was at 7000rpm, the limiter comes in at 7200.

Sat nav indicated 152mph.

If you want to tell them that their sat nav is inaccurate

Prefer a video to 60mph? So you can time it yourself?

Give me a day

This thread is interesting.

Perhaps for the wrong reasons

Basher · 28 Feb 2008 at 21:50

You took a picture whilst you were going over 150mph?

Neil.

Smaller ECU for running the electrics so i'm told, main ECU is superchipped.

I didn't get the ECU and superchip done?

Either way, why are we talking about how fast my current car is, and i frankly dont give a rats arse if you guys dont believe me, i know how quick it is, and that's all that matters to be honest.

So, what new car?

Indeed, wasn't like i was on a road or anything.

Like i said, my bro's mate has a small track, and a drag strip.

You do realise a fatal flaw in your plans to fool everyone...wind resistance (the 106 is a brick basically) and surface condition. The wobble from the road and the wind would make taking one hand off the wheel a very stupid mistake, quite possibly your last.

As for the photo, someone's been playing behind his dash.

And as for a car, if you want something quicker than your ever so awesome 106 for £5k that's easily insurable, I doubt you'll find anything.
