Just got my car back from Joolz with new suspension 
Protechs with 450f and 375r, the 140mile drive home lastnight was brill.
I can't believe the difference!
I'm off on a nice eurotrip tomorrow:

Hello Aide,
yes, you're free to drive as fast as possible as long as it is not restricted by a sign....so you don't need the above sign. This sign shows only the end of a restriction.
If you enter the Autobahn and you don't see a restriction, you can give your car the beans....but be careful, in Germany it is advised to drive 130km/h and many people drive around this speed and dislike people driving faster.

Except when it is "wet/reduced vis/the Boy's-in-Green think you were driving without due caution" otherwise, give it some beans!!

Thanks for the info
I do remember but never got your ph name! I never got to say thanks for loaning me your bucket to wash my car on the Saturday afternoon!
Chatsworth was great fun, might see you there again next year?

I always press on in the unrestricted bits and have never met any resistance from the natives. They are very strict about getting speed down for the parts where there is a limit, but that's about all I found.
Currently, you'll find you can have decent bursts, but expect to encounter plenty of roadworks. Most of Europe seems awash with road repairs at the moment.

Regarding the Fuel: Most Shell-Stations have V-Power with 100 Octane, many ARAL-Stations have Ultimate with 102 Octane....Alternative is 'Super Plus' with 98 Octane, which you will get everywhere.
Hi Aide,
I have heard that they've tightened up a bit and that some Autobahns now have 130 kph limits. The Germans have the view that there is no 'official' limit but if you're involved in an accident and the evidence shows that you were in excess of 130 then there might be probs with insurance cover.
I just wait until my SatNav stops posting a limit and let her loose.
I see from you map that Lux is not planned.
Cheap Petrol, Booze, Ciggies and another Cerbera owner not enough to tempt you then.
I'm here 'til Independence Day.

700km in the rain through Germany and Austria.
Torrential constant downpour.
Spent the whole time below 70.
65 most of the time.
Any faster and the car started to set sail across the lanes. Nearly 5h1t myself on more than one occasion.
But... Once I started climbing into the mountains the clouds cleared, the sun shone and the roads dryed.
New suspension, new tyres and 100km of perfect empty alpine road made up for earlier.
I think I might skip the cycling race and head for Montalchino in the morning
