What a perfect platform for an electric conversion.  The Porsche 914.

If you know me you know I love Porsches.  Although I'm a bit more of a classic Porsche guy.

Rather than a new Porsche guy.

But this guy REEAALLY loves a Porsche. He broke the highest speed recorded by the British police...and that isn't a good thing.

I've lost my job, said driver clocked doing 172mph. Now his liberty has gone too.

...oops.
