Finding yourself stuck in traffic and needing a toilet break can be an unpleasant experience.

A plumber has built the world’s fastest fully-functioning toilet which has a powerful 140cc motorbike engine hidden under the seat and four gears.

Colin Furze, 33, spent a month building the breakneck bog which is even filled with water so it can be flushed using a button on the handle bars.

There is also a clip so he can read the newspaper while he zooms along.

Mr Furze, who is often called out to fix and install toilets, decided to build the super loo as a bit of fun.

Mr Furze has managed to get the toilet to travel at an amazing 55mph but believes it will be able to go even faster along a smooth track and may even reach 60mph.

The previous fastest toilet was the Bog Standard, which could travel at 42.25mph and was presented on the set of Lo Show Dei Record in Milan, Italy in March 2011.
