2007 Mercedes-Benz S600 Guard armored limousine
The latest factory-modified Mercedes Benz S600 Guard features a high level of protection against fire-arms and even some sorts of explosives, combined with an outstanding comfort of the original S-Class top model.
Coming in the long wheelbase only, the Mercedes Benz S600 Guard is equipped with the same 517 hp biturbo V12 engine installed on the base S600 model.

The engine is strong enough to pull the vehicle from the crime scene even on flat tires and with its VIP cargo more or less alive and well (of course, only in case if the adversary didn’t use Mi-24 attack helicopters or FGM-148 Javelin anti-tank guided missiles).
In addition to fully integrated armor, the S600 Guard also features a self-sealing fuel tank and a fire-extinguishing system, as well as night vision system. I wonder, why didn’t they equip the car with some sort of James Bond style retaliation system, such as a built-in grenade launcher or a .50-cal heavy machine gun.
