I believe many have seen 120 on the clock and still going, the clocks are very innacurate though. Although top speed is largely academic.

Id say 110-115 true mph is about right maybe a little more, which for a 1.4 90bhp is very good.

Mines been modded quite a bit and top speed id say has got slightly better but get there so much quicker.

Keep it safe everyone

A few years ago i had a crx 16.16i with a few mods and a chipped ecu she had 150mph on the clock and i was off it seriously :shock: at that speed the car is so light and exstremely responsive if you sneezed you would cross 3 lanes nearly had a heart attack :shock: when some tosser pulled out infront of me on the fast lane of the M4 my lord how the fuk I never hit him god only knows but you have to allow 10% over a hundred mph so i would say a mere 140mph-ish maybe a little less :wink:
