I'd like to see his insurance premium when the ban/imprisonment is over!

172mph on a public road is some serious pace, you'd need to beable to see about 2 miles infront of you incase someone pulled out/changed lanes etc.....

At the end they advertise used Porsche 911 Turbo's from 13,000, excellent so we can all have a go.
