Title: Awesome classic French police cars
Post by: Mustangfan2003 on January 01, 2014, 02:24:09 PM
Cars featured here include a DS, SM, and a Alpine A110.  Oh and I believe I saw a BMW bike as well

So he's saying the SM does 240kph (159 mph)
the DS 220kph (137)
and the Alpine 210kph (130)

I would say the Alpine is a horrible choice for chasing down miscreants on a motorway.

And I'm highly dubious than the DS could do 220 - maybe downhill with a following wind and 10 minutes of your time. More like 195kph.
