GPS on the laptop showed 157mph on my coupe when I still had it. Don't know how far round the rev counter was, was concentrating on the road!

Was rather noisy (wind noise) at that speed, good fun tho.

Am trying to find out why I wasn't informed that my car had been found 2 weeks ago and no one had told me!! Essex police say it is Suffolk's police chupa chup up, so I am talking to them at the moment.
