SOFA HITS 92 MPH!

The road-legal settee has its own desk with plants, a cuppa and a plate of biscuits on. It was driven by daredevil Marek Turowsk who yesterday set a brand new Fastest Furniture Land Speed Record in Leicestershire.
The feat will be featured in the 2008 edition of The Guinness Book of World Records.

Gardener Marek, 38, from London, won a charity auction for the privilege of being behind the wheel, with cash going to The Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths.

After the drive, he said: "It was terrifying. You feel every bump and it seems like you might take off."

The previous record of 87mph was set in 1998 by engineer Ed China - the man who built the new wacky machine for company sofa.com.
