    7 and 8 will be welcome on my next MINI. Because my cruising speed on the highway is 3000 RPM in 6th. :cornut:

    That can't be right. 3000 RPM in 6th is 75mph for me and I didn't think you went that slow? :lol:

    Weird. You must be geared differently than I am.
    Or you're just mistaken. :biggrin5:

    For me, 3000 in 6th is CONSIDERABLY faster than 75
    :devil:

    Nope, it is really 75, but it is a Justa manual, which could make the difference.
