Bulgarian Business Men
Reading the BBC this evening and there is an article on corruption and questions about the earning of two Bulgarian business men. The BBC journalist reporting mentions more than once about being driven around in their "$400,000 armoured jeep"....
The "jeep" in question is clearly not a jeep but a factory armoured panzer.... so it's not just the Russian mafia responsible for buying B6/B7 spec Gs...
hmmm the article seems to have gone?
radio 4 "from our own correspondent"
For 400 000 USD it can´t be a factory Guard. They cost like 700 000 to 800 000 USD. Must be an aftermarket armoring.
Maybe 2 or 3 years ago such Gs were also popular here, but because nobody was shot in a car for a long time, they mafiosos don´t use them so often anymore. I have even seen a few of them for sale. Those I have seen were armored be Asbeck and Alpha Armoring.

You're right that it is too cheap but perhaps its a B6 or a used one at that price....
The reason I think it's factory is it has the lip on the roof line which the aftermarket armoured Gs don't have.
