Where I live at least the fastest highway is 110km/h and after 40km/h over that you have a mandatory court appearance. In Germany people are doing 180km/h right out of the gate. Just some food for thought.
I never hesitated to goose it now and then during the break in and have only had one top-up half quart top up at 800km, now at 8000km and still no call for extra oil.

Similar to the UK, we have some roads free of police but not many, and speed guns here are a favourite police activity, so a blast now and then. As for 150MPH
thats a jail sentence here.
