Erm, asking people on their opinion on the car they own it is a bad way to get results. Who is going to turn around and go "oh it's slow as crap* and gets beaten but <insert car list>" etc? It's like going on a chelsea forum and asking who the best football team is...

If you want a rough idea just google the car, find out it's bhp, 0-60, etc, all the usual stats, then google other hot hatches, make a list, job done.

Most GTi's will do 140mph according to their dials!
Heck - even a 1.9d could do 110mph

I doubt a GTi will reach 140, in any situation. I should think max for a standard would probably about 125 true mph. My 1.4 struggled immensely over 80ish.
