As I think I've mentioned earlier, I have an old Saab 9000 as a hobby.
I've bought a new gearbox to it, having extremely long gears - it will
take 120-130km/h (around 75mph) on 2nd gear before the rev limiter, so
3rd should be somewhere around 170-180km/h (around 105mph) :-). The
figures on standard gearbox are 100km/h (62mph) and 150km/h (93mph). I
can't wait to get to put it in the car :-).
