I made it back home in 8.5 - 9 hours..... Yes I did 110 - 130 mph through France and once I hit Germany I pushed it 140 - 155 mph. On a daily basis my average speed was 100 mph.... I drove the car like this for about 4 years, from 120K - 240K. So now she stays parked a lot, I went 8 months of her being parked, just recently started back driving it, so now i have to replace the alternater because it is not charging at all.....
