Plans for a supercar capable of reaching 340mph
have been revealed by a Manchester firm. Called the Keating Bolt, it
will cost £750,000 and go from 0-60mph in just two seconds
The new car will produce 800 horsepower, the
firm said. The project is the brainchild of the managing director of
Keating Supercars, Tony Keating from Bolton
A prototype of the new supercar will attempt to
break the world speed record for production cars in Ras al Khaimah in
the United Arab Emirates later this year when it will aim to beat the
300mph barrier
Tony Keating (pictured right) with veteran
broadcaster Gordon Burns (left) said the car is designed for real
supercar enthusiasts with very deep pockets and a twin turbo charged
version of The Bolt would travel faster than any supercar in history

- Top speed: 340mph
- 0-60mph: 2 seconds
- Engine: 7.0-litre LS7 V8

The car is powered by a 7.0-litre LS7 V8 in the
center of the car. The Bolt will use carbon and Kevlar panels to reduce
weight and also has power steering and air-con. At full power, The Bolt
can burn its way through a full tank of petrol in nine minutes
