The gears are usually good for:

1st - 40mph
2nd - 60mph
3rd - 90mph
4th - 110mph
5th - ??

I've timed my 0-60, my girlfriend with stopwatch and I shouted to her when to stop and it was 7.8secs. I've done 130mph on the M4 at early morning. Had a race with BMW 330D, he didn't pull away. Kept up with him all the way to work. He didn't expect a Polo to be right up his A** at that speed. Had to slow down then cause I was turning off. Im very proud of my car though, well happy with it.
