Doesn’t it have some sort of straight cut reduction gear which is what makes the horrendous noise? Apparently regularly used for high speed continental cruising. With earplugs and headphones I presume.

Looks like it was 16 seconds? That’s with a crew man covering the beam with his foot at the start, so add another second on top of that :lol:

Can’t see how it’s worth much more than £50k. Sure it’s epic and unique, but it’s a bit of a snotter too.

Spending 55k on an old shed to win a bet for 50 quid is fair game tbh @Gavster :lol:

I love that this car exists. But soooo do not want. :lol:

I’m not sure the vid will do much to increase the sale price - there’s a lot of smoke / water vapour coming from that exhaust.

10 gallons of oil for an oil change 😂

ETA: That’s about how much oil it burned on the test drive in that vid 🤣
