I'm just wondering, how you would mount a towbar to a Lamborghini. Exhausts would get in the way for a start..............

Not that much, I know that. The quoted speed for the GTi is either 126mph or 127mph.

well, the quoted top speed is 117
and they will quite happily bounce the rev limiter in 5th gear at the speedo reading of 128mph
