Default Anybody up on Peugeot vans? speed limiter removal

Cut a long story short some Muppet ticket the box for speed limiters on our van fleet so we are stuck with 60 vans that won't exceed 53mph on GPS. Anybody know how to remove it, assuming I will need some specialist software.

Boss said he doesn't care as they were ordered in error with them fitted.

Is it a Peugeot GPS limiter or not?

Look on the bright side they will be more economical until then!

It's done via Peugeot directly rather than an aftermarket add on like the Masternaut which we also have.

After having an artic lorry bearing down on me flashing his lights on the A1 I'm refusing to drive them and have said I will be using my car and claiming mileage.

Found a pikey by pass. Run to 53mph, flick off ignition and back on and it accelerates through the limiter
