Hey, just to let you know i managed to find a nice straight bit of Autobahn on the way to Cologne and had the S60 off the clock (showing 155) on Roadangel, that was with 2 passengers and luggage too, i had to brake before i would have liked to though as there was more left in it, just never got the opportunity to try it again the rest of the weekend either. Just as a reference too 100mph on mine shows 93mph on Roadangel!

Mine gets worse the higher you go. It reads 145 when reading 136 on GPS. I think it might manage 140 real speed at a push, but the gears seem to prevent my top end progress.

155 must have felt seriously quick !!!

155 must have felt seriously quick !!!Well it was only a 2 lane road too but dead straightish so good vision, it wasn't planned either or i would have had camera ready, but i was gripping the wheel for all i was worth lol...

How did the car feel at that speed, relatively stable or shaky?

It was stable actually, the whole S60 experience so far is satisfying!
