The chase
began when officers attempted to apprehend Ben Westwood, who was with others
trying to open a cash machine in the West Midlands. Westwood made off in the
stolen Audi RS5 ‘getaway car’ and a pursuit ensued. He even began to outpace a
helicopter at one point during the chase. Westwood received 9 years’
imprisonment in connection with offences of dangerous driving and conspiracy to
burgle and steal. He is thought to be Britain’s fastest getaway driver.
Previously, the highest speed recorded was 172mph, by a Porsche 911.
