The speed limiter on other models can usually be circumvented by selecting Sport mode or S with the rotary shifter, and using 4th or 5th gear, rather than 6th.

Thank you Cambo. I met someone at the golf course today who mentioned that same solution. I'm going to like this forum stuff.

My understanding is my naturally aspirated 5.0 L Jaguar XJL, if not speed limited from the factory, is capable of 178 MPH. I just don't know if one could achieve this in fifth gear. My Continental Extreme all season mud and snow tires are "Y" rated for 186 MPH speeds, although I wouldn't go that fast in either mud or snow.

My SuperSport would normally be limited to 155mph, but as I have the Speed Package and the limiter is increased to 174mph as the front and rear spoilers give it more stability at the higher speeds. I'm running Z rated Michelin Pilot Supersports as my Mataiva wheels are 9" and 10" widths so I can mount 265ZR35/20 and 295ZR30/20 tires. Those along with the XJR front anti roll bar have transformed the car into, what I feel, it a 4 door F-Type.
