"If I was to change up from second to top at 2,400 rpm, that would be around 20mph; at that speed the engine is only just getting into its stride, and by the time top gear is engaged the engine doesn't have enough power to pull the skin off the proverbial rice pudding!"
Perhaps this coincidence with 20 MPH in top with the quoted power RPM is intentional given that when the 7 was introduced the blanket speed limit on ALL UK roads was 20 MPH and remained so until 1930??
