140 mph (Private Road rolleyes ) in Top Gear (Not 5th gear) I notice the green rev light come on. I was too busy to see what revs I was actually doing, but I guess I would have been running out...nearly?

So would my car actually get anywhere near the 175+ claim???

I've never really pushed the car into these relms of crazyness due to fear of dying in a cloud of plastic fibres.

Remember that the shift lights can be programmed to come on at different engine speeds - have a look in the dash menu and you should be able to find out what yours are set to...

and in 4th or 5th gear, just a few revs = lots more speed smile

Already did 150 on the Autobahn (too much traffic for doing more). I had no problems with any LEDs coming on. As already suggested, you might have to modify the settings.

@ 175 everything was fine wink
Some cars have problems with the leds while a xenon hid pack is fitted.

By the way : Hi Konrad!
