 Volvo begins introduction of 112mph speed limit - PeterS
>> Almost certainly an extra cost option to remove the restriction will be available.

I’m not so sure about that. The Toyota Altezza I had when we lived in Japan was limited to 112mph, as, I think, are all cars on Japanese roads. However they sell derestricted or less restricted versions elsewhere in the world so the limit could safely be removed. But if Volvo limits all its cars to 112 mph then there’s no need to engineer suspension, brakes, wipers, door seals etc etc for higher speeds. Cost saving dressed up as safety I suspect! Removing a limiter in those circumstances could be a bit more risky... Audi will, for around £1,800 lift the 155mph limit on an RS6 to 176mph, but more requires tweaking I think...
