Correct answer
Yes, set so it cannot exceed 90 km/h.
Yes. It is category N2: goods transport with maximum mass above 3,500 kg and not above 12,000 kg. In this case Article 4 of Royal Decree 1417/2005 requires a limiter set so speed cannot exceed 90 km/h. Article 5 sets registration-date conditions and Article 7 provides exemptions for certain vehicles and uses, so mass alone does not mean every historic or exempt lorry requires one. Having a limiter does not authorise exceeding lower road-speed limits.
