If you are, for some odd reason, you can now live out your wildest dreams out in the U.K. courtesy of a V8-powered garden shed. According to the Guinness World Records, this boxy structure on wheels is officially the fastest garden shed in the world, being able to reach a top speed of 80.67 miles per hour courtesy of a 4.2-liter unit plucked from an Audi RS4. With the release of the 2020 [Guinness]() World Book of Records around the corner, Airbnb is offering its customers 15 unique experiences with current record holders around the world. One such record holder is a guy named Kevin Nicks, who is the legal owner and operator of the shed. And if you've got $150 and some time to kill, we highly suggest checking out the [listing](). https://twitter.com/\_/status/1169586452226805760 Much to our disappointment, you can't actually spend the night in the world's fastest shed (bummer!), but Nicks *is* offering a three-hour tour of the shed that includes a chat over coffee, and a ride-along in the brown beast. Although the Shed is road-legal, Kevin can only take one passenger at a time because despite its large size there are only two seats available. Truth be told, a rolling shed falls pretty low on the list of things we would do with an [Audi]() V8, yet here we are. When we first [covered]() this thing back in 2017 it was sporting a 2.8-liter engine with just 200 horsepower, so it seems that Nick's been busy upgrading the Shed. The hand-built machine has covered 34,000 miles and has set the world speed record for sheds. Also, it’s probably fair to say that most people didn’t know that was even a thing until now. https://www.instagram.com/p/B19hGUynLNJ Still, the spectacle of a shed that drives is quite amazing, made even more outlandish by the fact that this shed has a top speed of 80 mph. The [Guinness World Record]() holder has also raced a helicopter, but Kevin says his biggest source of enjoyment has come from all the great people he’s met along the way. *h/t:* [*Daily Mail*]() ## Author After working in the technology and software industry for several years, Chris Teague began writing as a way to help people outside of that world understand the sometimes very technical work that goes on behind the scenes.
