Top Speed?

[el_kel1]

When all is well with your bus what is your top speed?

What engine also?

[CovKid]

85 - gets a bit white knuckle after that though

I only get that speed cos mine is a tintop and almost everything in it was constructed using the lightest materials.

Its a 1.9DG - about 25,000 miles on a recon

[el_kel1]

epic, not had the chance to go full pelt in mine with all running smoothly.

Mine is a 1.9 DG.

[1664]

Had 90 out of mine (well that's what the speedo said anyway). Don't make a habit of it though........

oh, and 2.1 petrol

They do say if you flap the wing mirrors and shift about in your seat you can do 100 but unfortunately no one has lived to tell the tale.

Wound mine up beyond 65 once.

It will never happen again.... dont have a rev counter but it must have been spinning faster than a jet turbine judging by the noise...

1.6d n/a - not fast, not furious

My trusty stead always sounds furious?

Usually sit at a stready 65 (dial says 70) but I have hit 75 (80 on dial) downhill on motorways

Don't make a habit of it though. Uses too much lpg and the price is only going up

[el_kel1]

if it ever did go 80 mph it would be using 80£pm

Or fit a decent engine and you can easily see 100mph +

I have many a time (by mistake on a closed road!)

[Taw Cottage]

I've seen 125 on the clock in my 2.1 Atlantic

Bugger............forgot its in kilometres

Don't know the exact speed since the needle touches the end stop.
Sounds like a jet engine at these speeds and have only done it a couple of times

[Zebedee]

Mine will sit at 80 on the speedo on the flat but sounds rather strained. No rev counter but must be somewhere near max revs. 1.9DG on LPG.

We did 70 one time down hill with the wind behine us fully loaded with camping stuff and a full tank of LPG. But I think gravity might have had something to do with it. We got 60kph on the back of a french recovery truck 2 years ago does that count. (1.9 DG High top on LPG)
