250-255 km/h are the numbers I've heard for the 240 Turbo - even that number would be down to gearing for the track! Few places on the planet for that to happen anyway - Brno, Bathurst and Fuji come to mind. Know'n as the brick the 240 was never a winner regarding top speed. At a cW rating of 0.43 at a time when the Audi 100 scored 0.29 measured by TWR at a time when Volvo and GM-Holden were considered.
