Even the 3.6 feels like it could go some way past the 200 kph limiter. |

Was going to suggest that tboner's was an 'indicated' 135mph (ie. on the speedo), but see it was GPS. Maybe LR are being intentionally pessimistic as Porsche tend to do

Just what I was thinking  "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car. "HORSEPOWER" ----is how fast you hit the fence. "TORQUE" -----------is how far you take the fence with you. |

That depends on if LR restricted the vehicle correctly as some come from the factory with no speed limiter at all and others have one - it's then all down to the final drive etc  "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car. "HORSEPOWER" ----is how fast you hit the fence. "TORQUE" -----------is how far you take the fence with you. |
