Well 140 mph it wasn´t , but the speedo was about (optimistic) 190 Km/h, just flat out and it was exciting.
Fastest I had ever been in a car, the Golf was moving about in the lane, feeling light,
and the bonnet did some up/down movement in the tin, or maybe the latch/rubber stops were not properly aligned.

Try doing 150kph (indicated), on a downhill stretch of the Salerno Reggio Calabria in a Fiat Uno Mille Fire.
In Brum I've seen a driving instructor giving lessons in a Mk 7 Golf R a few times. I've also seen a BMW i8 (possibly a Bill Plant) driving school car once. It was on the other side of a dual-carriageway so couldn't see if a lesson was underway...
Both much more appealing than the slow-ass automatic Corsa I learned in in 1995

Living here in Ludwigsburg, which is very close to Porsche and Mercedes, it is not unusual to see driving schools using Porsches or pretty high spec Mercedes as their cars. There is one school close to me that uses a C63. They must pay a fortune in insurance.
Insurance for learners is surprisingly cheap. That's because they are always accompanied whether in a driving school car or your own car. Add Little Johnny to your policy and it may well be a £100-200 additional premium but with a higher excess. Once they pass and are allowed to run solo that's when the thousands of pounds premium kicks in.Ninka & I Brexited early.
