Mine will pull 90 quite comfortably.  You should be able to hear the turbo whistle - mine seems to come in at about 2500 ..... I think....

70mph unless you're on a race track  :wink:

Not sure of the top speed as I'm too scared things may break or fall of if I go over 70, but the turbo kicks in at around 2000rpm on mine.

I can only hear my turbo whistle when I go through underpasses or down enclosed lanes.

Mine does 90 happily on a private road of course. :lol: Mind you 90 on the clock is about 83 on my GPS.

Not too sure about a 200, but  I recall that the 300manual is listed in LR's own brochures as '92.something'

I can check the publication number, date & precise figure by request

I can hear my turbo whine when I am doing a few miles an hour with the windows down. I think it is about 15mph at about 200rpm I hear it wheeeer in. Awesome noise. I love it!!!

Mine goes to 70 easily and then try and go any faster the auto box kicks down a gear so I have to be very light on the gas and I can eventually get to 80mph (on private roads) but I think it will go faster on the flat
