Yes , stationed in Germany and Italy (aka Autostrada) and regularly cruised at between 100 and 140 mph..... Usually averaged 230 kph . Anything else was super car crap and my old used Mercedes wasn’t up to higher speeds....:o)

No Bugatti Veyron or Porsche Turbos, albeit I did have a six cylinder variant of the old Porsche 914. It ran the dolomite and Austrian alps mountain valley roads between Italy and Germany really well on pirelli p7’s ....

Loved the autobahn and autostrada and survived by knowing my place in that food chain and what flash to pass meant ..... STAT in the slower lanes !!!

“Usually averaged 230 kph”

- Glad you survived.

Thank you for taking part in building a new Europe.

Without America, Europe would have been lost.
