Oh no, I don't live in the car, a small trip in Gemany is 1000km one way from Vienna. Even though the speeds are high, the time needed to go from point A to B is not that short, because I need to refuel every 200 kilometers. I am sure a quick diesel car would go faster from point A to B because they refuel like every 600 kilometers minimum.
Ya, I think the places that test them usually stick to the speed limit, so they aren't going to be accurate if you are hammering on it all the time.

Here's the site I found it on:
