What is the fastest you have ever gone in a car?

[LeeCallaghan]

Can be on normal road or motor way

I would like 72 on the motorway

130mph in a Mitsubishi FTO
140mph in an M3 (as a teenager 😳)
Both times as passengers

Driving I've not gone much over 100mph
Current car Top speed is 124mph
Previous top speed 146mph
Previous to that 156mph and 0-60 in under 4 seconds.

I do like a fast car

About 220kmph (136mph) on autobahn - in Audi

Other cars were speeding by us so it didn't feel that fast at all.

According to the bit of news I read, it was only the Derbyshire bit of the M1 where the cameras are 24/7.

150+ legally on the Isle of Man

120 on M6 during a bluelight driver training session

140mph in a jag xjs a long time ago. 175mph on a previously owned motorbike.

200 km/h (125mph) on the Autobahn. DH was driving - wanted to see how fast the car could go. It didn't feel that scary surprisingly but he said it needed a lot of concentration. The guideline (not limit in a lot of places) is 120-130 km/h (75-80mph). If DH feels safe and we're on a long drive, sometimes he'll go up to 160ish but we don't have a powerful car, so not very often.

As a learner myself I went up to about 140 km/h (87mph) during an Autobahn lesson! Where there are no speed limits you can just follow the flow of traffic so that's what I did basically. Was a bit alarming when I looked at the speedo, but didn't feel out of control at any point and my instructor could have slowed me down, but didn't.

100 as driver, 120 as passenger (on the autobahn - scary thing was we had other cars passing us like we were standing still).

In the UK 155mph on motorway, 150mph on single carriageway A road, 125mph in a 30 limit. On the continent 175mph. Highest speeding offence 207kph on the continent - oops!

140mph in a Porsche 911 Turbo - my DH bought me one of the raceday courses and I drove on an airfield runway. It was fab!
