The top speed is almost irrelevant, no longer need to prove that your can can do the ton. Well I once did 125mph, but that was in my FIAT 132 many years ago. More important is how the car feels at 70-80 MPH, the uk motorway cruising speed. My 9000 2.0 LPT is a doodle to drive as it's very stable. Noise it not too bad as it shows 3000 rpm. The paradox is that the better car you drive, the less you feel it's there. That's until you're forced into a lesser tin pot.
