This mind-blowing British supercar can do 215mph with just 440hp!

TVR is about as famous as defunct British car companies get. But we bet you haven't heard of this one – the 440R. What is stunning about this car is that it could achieve a top speed of 215mph using only 440hp. Name a car that can get to that high a speed, with that low a power output?! Mike Fernie investigates this amazing piece of Blackpool engineering.
