My record in an Audi is 300 km/h (185mph) indicated, this done on a fairly
quiet public two-way highway.  The speed limit in this case was probably
irrelevant, as I would have been walking for the next 6 months whether it
was 60, 80 or 100 km/h.  The car?  An MTM modified RS2.

Totally irresponsible, I know, but speed is kind of like drugs - it is
addictive and it may cause serious health problems.  At the very least,
you'll spend all your money in search of more.

Last time I was in Germany ('95) I got an indicated 170kph (106mph) on the 
Autobahn from Trier to Frankfurt in a rented Opel slug going downhill with a 
tailwind. In London last year I saw 115 mph in a rented Fiat on the M1 - 
Gatsos? oh, you mean Speedcameras. Nope never saw one but I kept wondering 
why people were slowing down in the strangest places.
