Where does the One's Rev Limiter Kick in??

Hi guys. Just been wondering recently where abouts the rev limiter ACTUALLY kicks in on our cars and bounces off at the end? I've taken mine up to I'd say between 6-6.5k revs and it still hasn't bounced!!

6750 rpm I believe

There's no harm in finding out for sure though. Just ensure your engine is nicely warmed up, then give it the beans in 2nd on a piece of national speed limit road.

I bounced my old Cooper off the limiter frequently - and have done in the S on more than one occasion too

Damnit sooo close yet so far After the gearbox palava in January have been hesitant to find out to be honest Will try that later, thank Jon So how long's the S been around I haven't spoken to you in a while, still got the Merc too?
