Re: road speed question
You're going to get a wide range of speeds in answer to your question. Drive it at whatever speed it (and you) are comfortable with.
That said, I don't like having the engine revving very highly but I cruise at anything between 80 and 95 kph with an overdrive fitted. If you want to cruise at these sorts of speeds, I suggest an O/D to give you basically 4 forward speeds (6 if you want). Others will suggest a higher ratio diff but I don't like the big gap between 2nd and third gears being accentuated by the high ratio rear end.
The beauty of these cars is that with a little works, you can get a lot more out of them without too much affecting reliability.
All just MHO.
