A 26 year old Italian motorcyclist is appealing losing his driving licence after speed cameras clocked him speeding at an impossible 383mph. Paolo Turina, claims that the speed camera was defective and that he should not have been banned; Mr Turina was also fined approximately £200 for speeding.

Talking about the incident, Mr Turina said: “If I could go that fast I’d enter my bike in the MotoGP world championships. Valentino Rossi would not stand a chance. What did they think they were clocking – a jet fighter?”

Adding that, “If the court rules the fine will stand then I’m going to send it to the Guinness Book of Records – after all if the court says its true then I should get the credit for this remarkable feat.”

The police have stated that the speed camera was not at fault, but suspect that it was an error by staff on Mr Turina’s paperwork. The court has yet to decide on the case.

Two Italian friends have crossed an old Citroen 2CV with a Ferrari, to produce a bread van capable of travelling 180mph. The project has taken just over 5 years to complete and is estimated to have cost around £150,000.

The chassis of a Ferrari F355 Berlinetta was combined with an aging Citroen 2CV Fourgonnette bread-van, and now churns out a staggering 400bhp and has a 0 to 60mph time of less than 5 seconds. The Citroen 2CV has also been given a new paint job, Ferrari red.

The project was completed by Nicolo Lamberti and Milko Dalla Costa, who run the Italian Nimik rally team. Nicolo said that they found the Ferrari at a price they couldn’t turn down, stating: “We decided to purchase the Ferrari even though we didn’t know what we were going to do with it. But because of our crazy minds we were confident that an idea would soon come to us.”

Adding that: “Then we saw the 2CV and Milko, who is a Citroen collector, had the idea of combining its body shell with the Ferrari. The 2CV hardly cost anything because it was in such bad condition. It had no engine and all that was left was the body shell.”
