What is the expected top speed of a MK1 3 Speed Auto? My son's car is flat out at about 110 KPH and certainly revs high at 100 KPH. It is selecting all 3 gears but is there a possibility that the gearbox may not be doing its job or is this normal? Thanks, Ken

the car is the wrong color and has had a mechanic with a yellow peril working on it

Torque coverter takes the first 900 RPM, diff is most likely 4.11 why not swap diff centres for 3.7 from a manual capri / mk2 escort and or fit some 14" wheels

My 1300 auto is revving very hard at 105kmh. I usually cruise on the highway at about 90-100 to try and go easy on the poor old girl. Built for comfort, not speed
