Do you mind me asking what Vmax you saw? I've been a few times now but not in my GTV, I would guess at about 146-148mph?

142 on the day. The last few mph to get it flat out take so long to drag out that you need a few more miles of runway...

Given the discrepancy between indicated and actual speed, Alfa's claim of 155 flat out seems to be exactly spot-on by my observations on longer stretches of tarmac.

If it wasn't for pesky air resistance, 6th is geared for about 175 at the redline.

Thanks for that. Your 142mph can now be my target for my GTV at the next Vmax smile

With the V6 soundtrack of course.... currently needing a bonnet, bumper, NS headlamp, radiator, a/c radiator/condeser some mild straightening and a few other parts I suspect. Hmm, should keep me out of trouble for a while!
