Choosing the right armoured car

I was reading in the papers this weekend that Scotland Yard are busy testing a brand new, £300,000, BMW760 high security car that is boasted to be the second most secure car in the world, second only to Barack Obama’s Cadillac One (AKA The Beast).

It is rumoured that this is being tested for the use of Prince Charles and Camilla and is likely to  offer a whole host of security features including bullet proof glass, body work, engine compartment, gas attack detection as well as protection, fire suppression,   top level alarm systems to alert the special services of any situation and from anywhere in the world, blast protection, run flat tyres, explosion protected fuel tanks (similar to those used in formula one cars), quick and secure exit systems, anti remote controlled explosive systems, anti-kidnap equipment and much much more.

Well, we here at Spycatcheronline  can offer much more down to earth versions of the same and whilst we can armour virtually any vehicle to any level. We can also add quite a few of the ‘special features’ that I have mentioned above (although not all of them).

In general prices for these types of vehicles are based on each individual customer’s requirements and specifications but I can tell you that our most popular armoured vehicle, the Toyota Landcruiser, starts at around £100,000.

For this princely sum you will get your Landcruiser with glass and body work protection to level NIJ IIIa or B6 which will protect everyone inside from all rounds up to and including 7.62 (AK47) and .308, amongst others.  Our customers also get blast protection under the vehicle, run flat tyres, roof protection, explosion protected fuel tank, armoured engine compartment and up rated suspension and hinges to accommodate all the extra weight of armouring.

All the armouring is carried out in our factory in Israel where they have had years of experience and practice in producing and using this kind of product.

If our customers are also concerned about their time in the open then we have a whole range of bullet proof vests available at very reasonable prices.

Get in touch today should you have a requirement for an armoured vehicle and we will be more than happy to discuss your options.
