Mine does 75!!!

Got 75 out of my 200tdi on the way to work this morn, is that good... my last landy struggled to hit 60

either 1.6667 t/box or engine is not as should be

Only 75, I have a 2.5 td 110 converted to 200tdi, disco transfer box (I don't tow) that will hit 90mph. on the M way in France.
With the standard 110 t box like yours flat out around 75, and about 25mpg, now I get mid to high 30's mpg. less noise at crusing speed and have a bit spare to overtake without scaring myself.

Iver had 85 out of my defender 90 200tdi, and it has 164k on clock, didnt really appreciate it mind haha

I have done 70 in my td the otherday, it did use most of it's oil and 2 litres of water though..

haha 85 thats flying,, mines happy at 60 but is bit hairy at 75,,,

My 90 Pick Up will happily sit at an indicated 70mph with more in the tank. 300TDI with a few goodies.

mine will go over90mph on sat nav but then i take my foot off to much vibrations door tops flapping

200tdi 90 big intercooler 32" bfg all terains

Mine will do just over 90 it did have some more to come but i was going deaf!
1.2 transfer box.

My first pre-cat 300TDi 90 I saw an indicated 92mph running BFG Trac-Edges. Speedo was under-reading as it should have had 205's on and these were bigger. Car in front was reading an indicated 106mph+

Dodgy speedos!!!!

Every one is different, British engineering

My 1994 300 TDi is happiest at 55 - 65 but will hit 80

That said, the re-entry scares me, so 55 - 65 is where we stay

i'm with SH re-entrys a bitch... i go no faster than 60 mph loads left in her but just god dam noisey with muds on...

i can get 70 out of my 2.5 n/a 90. only downhill with the wind behind me tho

If I sit at 55-60 it copes fine, does quite a few mpg too 32+ so i cant complain really

Doing 90 in a defender is very dangerous and you should not have a licence!!

Who gives a **** I had 100 in my 90 v8 with a little more to go, but with the 300 in it now 65 is good before it's rattles itself to death.

a good fender in the td5 family 90mph should be a treat the tyres are rated for 110mph so whats wrong with that, would rather have a 110 doing that though longer wheel base, little more room for ere

I don't see a problem at all but last time I said I had 90mph in my fender every1 on ere said I should not be on the road and I am a danger to other road users!!
Don't know about you but where I live 80% of drivers drive down or up the A1/ M1 faster than this but it's ok because they have cars that stop quicker??
I THINK NOT!!

As long as the plod ain't looking do as you wish as long as it's not life threatening!!
BE SAFE!!!

75mph out of my 90 pickup 2.5 n/a on the A14
