A321 - Vapp in PFD different from MCDU

Hello all,

Today we're approaching and the Vapp calculated in the MCDU was 141 kts but the magenta triangle in the PFD was at 160 kts.

We had managed speed and the wind was 240/15kts no gust reported for rwy 23.

Is it possible to have such indication with constant wind?

We landed a litle bit faster than normal but safe. I was reading the FCOM former 1.22.30 p68 and it makes sense that our IAS moves when we have current wind different from the wind reported (GS mini) but this was not the case of today.

can anyone please explain why such difference?

Thanks to all
