Thanks for posting it.

I like 'Buttercup' for the name. Maybe paint it yellow though.

With my 9 foot tall 712W I tell people that sometimes I notice when I back over a Toyota; with the Marauder I might not notice if I backed over my Pinz!

Damn, wish I was a rich urbanite...

If you don't want to spend the 300K for that vehicle you can always get one of these..

I have one and it is pretty cool.

Make one interesting first date...So, do you like off roading? ...boating? Fasten your seat belt, Darlin'

If we had the budgets that the military has (no country in particular) we would probably all have something like this.

I looked at a BRDM. You can look for them on You Tube. Amphibious also, sort of like a smaller Alvis...

Cool but it would have cost me a small fortune to import it..

A ferret is a nice armoured car, but as a daily driver? the upside down steering wheel? and the Wilson pre-select box? not my ideal? I have driven one back in the day when I wore the uniform?.....and gas mileage? Rolls Royce B60 scary MPG a lot worse than a petrol Pinz.....but who am I to talk, I,m trying to sell my Unimog to fund the purchase of a new Belarus 820 Tractor!!!!!!! some would conside that action to be stark raving mad!!!!!!!!! No!!!! the only upgrade from a Pinz is a Big 8 Wheel Tatra.....at least it will all be familiar when you look underneath????

Did he say 70 miles per hour? I wonder what the range is on that thing? I like, but I'm about $298K short right now.
