I see about 82/83 on a cruise with mine. Highest peak I have had is 103deg C ( gauge has a recall facility ).

I notice you are from Spain so I wonder with the higher temps whether you will see a bit more than this? The highest temp I had (above ) was in South of France after some sustained high speeds.

I don't think I have ever seen more than 96/97 in this country.

I have noticed people with std VW/Audi gauges ( Golf GTi, Audi Coupe ) often say they see temps over 110 deg C ??

Providing you are using a good quality oil, anything up to 120°C is fine .
